	[No title]
		And as the encyclical reminds us, despite the tension manifest at times between faith and reason, and between theology and philosophy, what unites both "parties" in their dispute is an interest in the truth.
		But since, as the encyclical also rightly insists, this interest is not at all a sectarian affair, not constitutive of a party as such, but is rather the preeminently human interest, faith and reason, philosophy and theology, have everything to do with the question of human dignity.
		The encyclical specifically recommends an enthusiastic pursuit of philosophy, and it encourages philosophers to be bold in their work: philosophers should "trust in the power of human reason and not set themselves goals that are too modest" (§56).

	Encyclical
		From the nature of the case encyclicals addressed to the bishops of the world are generally concerned with matters which affect the welfare of the Church at large.
		Another important encyclical of Pius IX, described as an "Encyclical of the Holy Office", was that beginning "Supremæ" (4 Aug., 1856) in condemnation of Spiritualism.
		In the early centuries the term encyclical was applied, not only to papal letters, but to certain letters emanating from bishops or archbishops and directed to their own flocks or to other bishops.

		Unlike those in the papal bull, doctrinal statements in an encyclical are not necessarily regarded as infallible; the faithful, however, are bound to give assent.
		Leo XIII issued a whole series of encyclicals reorienting Roman Catholic life in the modern world; among these are Aeterni Patris, 1879, on Thomistic philosophy, and Rerum novarum, 1891, concerning the social order.
		Among the numerous encyclicals of Pius XII are Mystici corporis Christi, 1943, on the nature of the church, and Sacra virgintas, 1954, on evangelical chastity.

	QUADRAGESIMO ANNO
		Rightly, therefore, have all these groups constantly held the Apostolic Encyclical from that time in such high honor that to signify their gratitude they are wont, in various places and in various ways, to commemorate it every year.
		And so, with Leo's Encyclical pointing the way and furnishing the light, a true Catholic social science has arisen, which is daily fostered and enriched by the tireless efforts of those chosen men whom We have termed auxiliaries of the Church.
		The Encyclical itself, whose anniversary we are celebrating, is clearest proof that it is the height of injustice to hurl these calumnies and reproaches at the Church and her teaching.

		Each new encyclical is received as a kind of policy statement in which the Church announces some "new" position, which is then sifted by various experts and bureaucrats as grist for their own projects.
		Above all, the encyclical shows that moral theology cannot be done adequately by submitting the tradition to the partial, shortsighted, and usually reductionistic perspectives of the professional guilds of ethicists and policy analysts.
		This encyclical furnishes a ground to the bishops to raise some stern questions to the presidents of colleges about the misteaching that is taking place with their acquiescence and complicity.

	Centesimus annus - Ioannes Paulus PP. II - Encyclical Letter (1991.05.01)
		The present Encyclical seeks to show the fruitfulness of the principles enunciated by Leo XIII, which belong to the Church's doctrinal patrimony and, as such, involve the exercise of her teaching authority.
		Indeed, the key to reading the Encyclical is the dignity of the worker as such, and, for the same reason, the dignity of work, which is defined as follows: "to exert oneself for the sake of procuring what is necessary for the various purposes of life, and first of all for self-preservation".
		Pope Leo's Encyclical on the "condition of the workers" is thus an Encyclical on the poor and on the terrible conditions to which the new and often violent process of industrialization had reduced great multitudes of people.

		We are celebrating the ninetieth anniversary of the encyclical Rerum Novarum on the eve of new developments in technological, economic and political conditions which, according to many experts, will influence the world of work and production no less than the industrial revolution of the last century.
		Evidence of this are the many documents of the magisterium issued by the popes and by the Second Vatican Council, pronouncements by individual episcopates, and the activity of the various centers of thought and of practical apostolic initiatives, both on the international level and at the level of the local churches.
		The encyclical Rerum novarum, which has the social question as its theme, stresses this issue also, recalling and confirming the church's teaching on ownership, on the right to private property even when it is a question of the means of production.

	Musicae Sacrae
		Among these the violin and other musical instruments that use the bow are outstanding because, when they are played by themselves or with other stringed instruments or with the organ, they express the joyous and sad sentiments of the soul with an indescribable power.
		Moreover, in the encyclical Mediator Dei, We Ourselves gave detailed and clear regulations concerning the musical modes that are to be admitted into the worship of the Catholic religion.
		It should hardly be necessary to add the warning that, when the means and talent available are unequal to the task, it is better to forego such attempts than to do something which would be unworthy of divine worship and sacred gatherings.

	Encyclical of the Eastern Patriarchs - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Encyclical of the Eastern Patriarchs was a letter sent in May, 1848 by the patriarchs of the Orthodox Church in reply to Pope Pius IX's Epistle to the Easterns (1848).
		Rather than being a private letter to Pius IX, it is addressed to "All the Bishops Everywhere, Beloved in the Holy Ghost, Our Venerable, Most Dear Brethren; and to their Most Pious Clergy; and to All the Genuine Orthodox Sons of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church."
		The encyclical explicitly denounces the Filioque clause added by Rome to the Nicene Creed as a heresy, censures the papacy for missionizing among Eastern Orthodox Christians, and repudiates Ultramontanism (papal supremacy).

	The Pope's 12th Encyclical
		With the Orthodox Church (and the encyclical significantly refers to the Orthodox Church in the singular), it is suggested that there are no church-dividing disagreements on the constituting truths of apostolic Christianity.
		At several points, the encyclical points to the first millennium, before the separation of East and West, as a period that may provide models for the exercise of the papal office in the future.
		The additional teaching of Vatican II, reiterated in the present encyclical, is that all who are Christians are "truly but imperfectly" in communion with the Catholic Church.

	Encyclical on the Eucharist: Restore Doctrine, Piety End Abuses
		At his Wednesday audience April 16, the Holy Father said of the encyclical he would sign the next day,"In this text I intend to give every believer an organic reflection on the Eucharistic sacrifice that gathers within it the entire spiritual good of the Church".
		The encyclical's six chapters combine a profound meditation on the transcendence of the Eucharist with an appeal to all believers to reaffirm fundamental doctrine of the Mass.
		One of the most striking features of the encyclical is the pope's announcement that he has asked "the competent offices of the Roman Curia" to prepare a "more specific document" that will include "prescriptions of a juridical nature" to govern the celebration of the Eucharist.

	LT60 - THE ENCYCLICAL SPIRITUS PARACLITUS IN ITS HISTORICAL CONTEXT
		In its reaction to the Modernism of the early decades of the century, this encyclical developed a negative approach to Scripture, insisting on its inerrancy and, in effect, denying that one had to interpret the Bible according to its literary forms.
		The impact of the encyclical of Pope Benedict XV was stifling.
		Fitzmyer rightly observes, "That encyclical responded in part to problems that were raised by the rationalistic interpretation of the Bible in the nineteenth century and to many historical and archaeological discoveries, scientific advances, progress in textual criticism, and by the comparative study of ancient religions.

	JIMMY AKIN.ORG: Encyclical Rumor Update
		That was to be expected--at least somewhat since first encyclicals to at least announce the pope's program of governance (though it's really amazing to read Redemptor Hominis and see in it the seeds for basically everything JP2 did in the next 26 years).
		The title of the Encyclical, again according to La Stampa, centered on the theme of Christian Charity and the Love of God will be “Deus Caritas est,” (God is Love), taken from the fourth chapter of the First Letter of Saint John [SOURCE].
		This has nothing to do with the Pope or the excellent encyclical which he will certainly be blessing the Church with, but only the resounding drone of insubstantial homilies we've all heard far too much of, purportedly on the same theme.

	Truth Cannot Contradict Truth: Pope John Paul II on science, evolution and faith -- Beliefnet.com
		In his encyclical Humani Generis (1950), my predecessor Pius XII had already stated that there was no opposition between evolution and the doctrine of the faith about man and his vocation, on condition that one did not lose sight of several indisputable points.
		Taking into account the state of scientific research at the time as well as of the requirements of theology, the encyclical Humani Generis considered the doctrine of "evolutionism" a serious hypothesis, worthy of investigation and in-depth study equal to that of the opposing hypothesis.
		Pius XII added two methodological conditions: that this opinion should not be adopted as though it were a certain, proven doctrine and as though one could totally prescind from revelation with regard to the questions it raises.

		John Paul's warnings were contained in an encyclical, a special letter reserved for matters of extreme importance to the church.
		Domenico Tomassetto, a member of the ecumenical relations commission of the Baptist, Waldensian and Methodist churches in Italy, said the encyclical made "a definite cut to the entire ecumenical process." Protestants are a tiny minority in Italy.
		John Paul's crackdown regarding communion, while breaking no new ground, also was likely to stir up anger in the United States and other countries where divorced and remarried Catholics have been hoping that someday the pope might reverse the ban on their taking communion.
