Vatican II, TCRNews.com, What did the Second Vatican Council do for us? Why the New Century Will Not Bring Vatican III John Paul’s understanding of this point may come from his experience in Poland, where visible, clerical-mandated lay associations were virtually impossible under the Communist authorities; individual Catholics had to show initiative and not wait for clerical permission to live their Christian vocation. Paul and Augustine taught that the fruit of Christian conversion is a new freedom wherein the rules (important as they are) hardly matter. Paul, like the great French Jesuit theologian, Henri de Lubac - who if anyone was the theological architect of the council - was horrified by the way he felt the council had been hijacked by extreme liberals. www.tcrnews2.com /Ker.html   (572 words)

Theological Controversies and Studies: The Copernican System. Galileo Galilei. @ ELCore.Net At the time in Italy the ecclesiastical authorities were markedly conservative and hostile to innovations, particularly as there was then a strong party in Italy, of whom Paul Sarpi may be taken as a typical example, who were liberal and Lutheran in their tendencies and sympathies. Paul V. was undoubtedly present at the session in which the condemnation was agreed upon and approved of the verdict, but still the decision remained only the decision of the congregation and not the binding ex-cathedra pronouncement of the Head of the Church. In the preface to the work Osiander made considerable changes out of deference to the views of Luther and Melanchthon, the most important of which was that he referred to the system of Copernicus as an hypothesis that might or might not be true. catholicity.elcore.net /MacCaffrey/HCCRFR1_Chapter06f.html   (659 words)

A Short History of the Council of Trent, by R.F. Littledale Sarpi holds a brief against the Council, and as he had not access to its minutes, he is often inaccurate in chronological matters, though his knowledge of the inner working of the assembly, doubtless based on documents in the Venetian archives, is minute and, on the whole, trustworthy. He is as definitely the apologist of the Council as Sarpi is its assailant, and his bias is quite as marked, nor is it always possible, as Ranke has acutely pointed out, to arrive at the real facts by comparing the two and striking a mean between their assertions. Theiner is eloquent in his preface on the confutation which Massarelli's minutes supply of Sarpi's charges; but the wish is father to the thought in this case, since, in fact, they confirm many of his most serious allegations as to the interference of the legates and the absence of liberty in the Council. anglicanhistory.org /england/rflittledale/trent.html   (8088 words)

Publisher description for Library of Congress control number 82017691 Paolo Sarpi (1552-1623) is remembered as the defender of Venice against the Papal Interdict of 1606 and as the first, and greatest, historian of the Counter-Reformation. Starting from the Pensiere, in which Sarpi formulated a series of philosophical and historical arguments against Christianity, Mr Wootton seeks to reinterpret Sarpi's life work as being the expression, not of a love of intellectual liberty, nor of a commitment to Protestantism, but of a carefully thought out hostility to doctrinal religion. This book seeks, through its account of Sarpi's beliefs, to penetrate the hypocrisy which contemporaries agreed characterised the age, and to lay the foundations for a new understanding of the intellectual origins of unbelief. www.loc.gov /catdir/description/cam022/82017691.html   (313 words)

Fidelio Article: LaRouche--Hobbes' Math Misshaped History Sarpi, shrewder than the leaders of Venice who preceded him, recognized that the strength, and corresponding vulnerability of emerging, modern European civilization, was its dependency upon the scientific method of Plato. Sarpi recognized the potentially fatal strategic blunder of those Venetian leaders who sought to eliminate the influence of the Council of Florence, and of science, by bloody and other varieties of inquisitional methods. Mathematician Paolo Sarpi's application of “Occam's Razor” to Aristotle, to make Aristotle's anti-Platonic formalism the hypothesis of a generalized, empiricist-materialist method, is a pathology of that latter type. www.schillerinstitute.org /fid_91-96/961_lyn-hobbes.html   (8915 words)
