Debating Syllabus Doctrines and the Church State Tie
The Munich theologians push a Duns Scotus style critique of the Syllabus arguing that infallibility does not entail fixed Church State relations and that even if the Pope’s infallibility is defined nothing in the State Church dynamic must change. The piece contrasts Manning’s sermon defending Syllabus theses with Ultramontanist aims, notes Liberalism and modern civilization threaten religious authority, and mentions Gladstone’s bishopric appointments and Cornwall church figures with census data.
