What do most Catholics still think of Newman’s Development of Doctrine theory? Do they think it still holds up or has the consensus changed? Sorry for the questions, I just have no idea 😅

I’ve got some Greek pals, and this means I get to celebrate two Christmases and two Easter’s. But I’ve been informed that this year that the pope and the patriarch have agreed on a joint Easter, robbing me of a big meal. Bring the schism back NOW.

a new games console has been announced recently - the world considers this news in amongst the myriad circumstances in which it is situated.
Elsewhere, a rabbit emerges from a burrow and breathes in the cold morning air.

We are moving quickly beyond HOI4 toward Crusader Kings, with designated heirs, complicated dynastic marriage politics, personal rivalries between vassals and fiefdoms, court chaplains like Paula White selling neo-indulgences, religious posturing against infidels, etc.
Is the NSC filled with people with HOI4 brain?
hands off, thief

Started reading Huldrych Zwingli's 1525 work on systematic theology, "De vera et falsa religione," on a whim.
Given the bad rap Zwingli often gets in much of the historiography of the Reformation, I was very pleasantly surprised at how warm, humane, reasonable, learned, and Erasmian he sounded.

Bullinger and Zwingli were much more spiritually ascertaining than Calvin/Beza. Bullinger talked of the reality of ghosts and exorcising demons and Zwingli would “prophesy”. Zurich’s influence on John Donne can be seen with how he admonishes the later Genevans for decrying all talk of demons/angels
