  • Is Feeneyism Catholic? / François Laisney
    I S F That there is only one true Church, the one, Holy, Catholic, EENEYISM Apostolic, and Roman Church, outside of which no one can be saved, has always been taught by the Catholic Church. This dogma, however, has been under attack in recent times. Already last century, the Popes had to repeatedly rebuke the liberal Catholics for their tendency to dilute this The Catholic dogma, “reducing it to a meaningless formula.” But in the late 1940’s and early 1950’s, the same dogma was C Meaning of misrepresented on the opposite side by Fr. Feeney ATHOLIC and his followers, changing “outside the Church there is The Dogma, no salvation” into “without water baptism there is absolutely no salvation,” thereby denying doctrines which had been “Outside the positively and unanimously taught by the Church, that is, Baptism of Blood and Baptism of Desire. ? Catholic Church IS FEENEYISM REV. FR. FRANÇOIS LAISNEY There Is No CATHOLIC? Salvation” What is at stake?—Fidelity to the unchangeable Catholic Faith, to the Tradition of the Church. We must neither deviate on the left nor on the right. The teaching Church must “religiously guard and faithfully explain the deposit of Faith that was handed down through the Apostles,…this apostolic doctrine that all the Fathers held, and the holy orthodox Doctors reverenced and followed” (Vatican I); all members of the Church must receive that same doctrine, without picking and choosing what they will believe. We may not deny a point of doctrine that belongs to the IS deposit of Faith—though not yet defined—under the pretext that it has been distorted by the Liberals.

    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

Portier, Ph.D. In its analysis of mystical body of Christ theology in the twentieth century, this dissertation identifies three major streams of mystical body theology operative in the early part of the century: the Roman, the German-Romantic, and the French-Social- Liturgical. Delineating these three streams of mystical body theology sheds light on the diversity of scholarly positions concerning the heritage of mystical body theology, on its mid twentieth-century recession, as well as on Pope Pius XII’s 1943 encyclical, Mystici Corporis Christi, which enshrined “mystical body of Christ” in Catholic magisterial teaching. Further, it links the work of Virgil Michel and Louis-Marie Chauvet, two scholars remote from each other on several fronts, in the long, winding French stream.

Cardinal Merry del Val on the Authority of the Pope “The Truth of Papal Claims, by Raphael Cardinal Merry del Val, which Preserving Christian Publications has recently reprinted . is a worthy edition of an important Catholic work.” – Raymond Leo Cardinal Burke “Hence Dr. Oxenham may learn, that by Infallibility we do not mean ‘impeccability’ or sinlessness in the person of S. Peter or of his successors, who are accountable to God for their own consciences and their own lives like every other human being; ... we do not mean that the Roman Pontiff receives special revelations from heaven, or that by a revelation of the Holy Spirit he may invent or teach new doctrines not contained in the deposit of Faith, though, when occasion offers, and especially in times of conflict, he may define a point which all have not clearly recognized in that Faith, or which some may be striving to put out of view. Nor do we mean that every utterance that proceeds from the Pope’s mouth, or from the Pope’s pen, is infallible because it is his. Great as our filial duty of reverence is towards whatever he may say, great as our duty of obedience must be to the guidance of the Chief Shepherd, we do not hold that every word of his is infallible, or that he must always be right.

The “Affair” culminated in a letter written by an assistant professor at Dayton to the Cincinnati archbishop, Karl J. Alter. In the letter, the professor cited a number of instances where “erroneous teachings” were “endorsed” or “openly advocated” by four faculty members. Concerned about the pastoral impact on the University of Dayton community, the professor asked the archbishop to conduct an investigation.

  • Catholic Candle's List of Priests & Those Who Claim to Be Priests
    Revision date: November 6, 2020 Catholic Candle’s List of Priests & Those Who Claim to be Priests This list primarily focuses on whether there is any doubt concerning the validity of the ordination of a priest whom the faithful might encounter. Note: Catholic sacramental theology requires that an ordination be treated as invalid if even the slightest reasonable doubt exists, concerning the validity of either the ordination or the ordaining bishop’s consecration. See the analyses elsewhere in Catholic Candle, which demonstrate the inherent doubtfulness of conciliar ordinations and consecrations: http://catholiccandle.neocities.org/faith/new-ordination-doubtful.html https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49oPuI54eEGd2RRcTFSY29EYzg/view https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B49oPuI54eEGZVF5cmFvMGdZM0U/view Also, in the list below, Catholic Candle flags sedevacantist priests (or supposed priests) of which we are aware. Sedevacantism is a grave error and is schism. See this article analyzing the sedevacantist error: https://catholiccandle.neocities.org/faith/against-sedevacantism.html This is not a list of “approved” priests. It is the beginning of a prudent investigation concerning a particular priest. Fr. Patrick Abbet From Switzerland. Ordained in 2002. Source: STAS.org website, where he was an SSPX seminary professor. Fr. Stephen Abraham As of April 2017, he lives in a house with Bishop Richard Nelson Williamson, in Broadstairs, England. There are serious problems with this SSPX-ordained priest. Stay away from him! If you have a serious practical reason to know more information, please contact Catholic Candle. 1 Revision date: November 6, 2020 Fr. Albert Kallio, O.P. Ordained in Winona in 1994 by Bishop Fellay.

  • Harvard and Catholic … Are Not Incompatible”: Father William Porras’ Chaplaincy at Harvard University, 1954–1960 Federico M
    First published in U.S. Catholic Historian, 36 Copyright © [2018] The Catholic University of America Press “Harvard and Catholic … are not incompatible”: Father William Porras’ Chaplaincy at Harvard University, 1954–1960 Federico M. Requena In 1954, five years after the outbreak of the crisis involving Father Leonard Feeney and the St. Benedict Center, Boston Archbishop Richard J. Cushing appointed Father William Porras, a priest of Opus Dei, as chaplain to the Harvard Catholic Club. Throughout the six years of his chaplaincy (1954– 1960), Father Porras fostered an active and integrated Catholic presence at Harvard and combated Catholicism’s perceived isolation. His initiati- ves were instrumental in bringing about the regular celebration of Mass on campus and the inauguration of the Charles Chauncey Stillman Chair of Catholic Studies, the birth of the magazine Current, and the beginning of more cordial relations between Harvard and the Boston Archdiocese. The study of Father Porras’ ministry in light of Father Feeney’s approach offers insights into the relationship between American Catholicism and seculari- zation in the period prior to the Second Vatican Council. Keywords: Harvard University; St. Benedict Center; Harvard Catholic Club; Opus Dei; Porras, William; Feeney, Leonard; Cushing, Archbishop Richard J. he rapid growth of American Catholic higher education in the years following the Second World War is well-documented amidst the era’s T educational expansion. With additional opportunities for Catholic education, Catholics, in the years immediately prior to the Second Vatican Council (1962–1965), questioned whether they could attend non-Catholic institutions of higher learning or whether such schools represented spiritual and moral dangers to Catholics.
