by Raymond Karam February 7, 2006

Modern liberalism, which makes membership in the Catholic Church unnecessary for salvation, undermines something more than the dogma that there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church.

Reply to a Liberal Part I: Answer to Five Minor Points

by Raymond Karam February 7, 2006

I It seems to be a habit of liberal theologians to give more weight to the opinions of theologians of their own type than to the infallible definitions of the Church. Some of them never quote the Scriptures and the Councils; others do, usually by way of pious preamble.
