Kennedy Hall: What Happened to Catholicism, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

It is clear that since the Second Vatican Council, the Church has been plagued with terrible doctrinal and liturgical confusion that has contributed to the worst crisis in the Church since the Arian crisis, and perhaps the worst in history. This incisive book examines the often-overlooked wisdom of Pope St. Pius X on modernism, the synthesis of all heresies, found in his landmark encyclical Pascendi Dominici Gregis (On the Doctrines of the Modernists).

Although Pascendi is a momentous document that lays out virtually all the doctrinal errors we now find, it seems as if St. Pius X's words have been ignored. Kennedy Hall translates the most salient points of this authoritative work into a readable format so that you can identify the grave problems facing us, problems that were illuminated more than one hundred years ago. In these thought-provoking pages, you will find: Three ways to identify a heretic, according to moral theologians
The Four Horsemen of the "Philosophical Apocalypse"
How modernism is like a serial killer, insidiously destroying minds and hearts
What the Church really teaches regarding scriptural interpretation and personal beliefs
How catechesis is harmed by contemporary thought
Why liturgy must center on God, not on man

Most Catholics with orthodox faith can sense the prevailing errors but perhaps cannot put into words what they know to be true by sound Catholic intuition. This book will help clarify important concerns, from the relationship between faith and science to the dangers of relativism and subjectivism, so that you can form yourself and your family to withstand this current crisis.

By evaluating the writings of key figures, including recent pontiffs, on the struggle for (or against) orthodoxy, Hall lays out the historical background of the heresy of modernism. His analysis of the polarization in the Church along the doctrinal fault lines of our day unearths commonsense solutions for restoration and renewal.
