		Hooker further compromised himself in Travers' Calvinist eyes by asserting that Roman Catholics could be saved as Roman Catholics, because that Church, though imperfect and erring in various ways, still held to Christ and the greater part of the foundations of Christianity, and so its faithful were excused by honest ignorance of the truth.
		Hooker's aim was to emphasize the unity of Christendom before its divisions by pointing out first the things in which all Christians agreed: "I took it for the best and most perspicuous way of teaching, to declare first, how far we do agree, and then to show our disagreements."
		Hooker's ultimate principle he calls reason, by which he means thought, not as propositional thinking, but as the whole process of experience, and reflection on experience, that issues in knowledge and wisdom, and supremely, the knowledge of God.

	Oxford Scholarship Online: Richard Hooker and Reformed Theology
		Abstract: For many years, Richard Hooker (1554–1600) has traditionally been seen as the first systematic defender of Anglicanism, setting out in Elizabeth I’s reign the English Church’s position as a via media between Roman Catholicism and Reformed Protestantism.
		In the last twenty years, however, the old consensus has crumbled and revisionists have argued with increasing strength that Hooker should be viewed as a thoroughly Reformed theologian – a defender of the Elizabethan Reformed consensus against radicals like the puritans.
		Hooker emerges as a conservative who paradoxically came to occupy a remarkably individual, innovative position at a time of transition in the English Church.

		In 1600 the Anglican theologian Richard Hooker outlined a view of authority which has since became a standard model for Anglicans.
		Hooker wrote (more complexly than I am alluding to here) of Scripture, Tradition and Reason as a tri-fold set constituting authority in the new Anglican Church..
		Now Hooker meant by reason something different than what we in our post-Enlightenment age mean, but the unique feature was his addition of a "third thing" to the usual pillars of authority - the Bible and the traditional teachings of the church.
