Not so, this brilliant scholar says. For just as each era has new ways of understanding, so, too, must the Catholic Church always change in its understanding of faith and morals.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMyth #2: Catholics have to do whatever the Pope says. To the contrary, according to Newman's famous quip on after-dinner toasts, the ultimate obligation of Catholics is to conscience, not the Pope.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMyth #3: It's the bishops who teach, the laity who follows. Newman turns this notion upside down: The laity, he says, are the source and final seal of the church's teaching; thus the bishops must listen to them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNever before collected in one volume, these classic works reveal Newman at his eloquent best as he speaks to the religious crises of our time.","brand":"Image","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44213917352191,"sku":"9780385422802","price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780385422802_s600x595.jpg?v=1775600183","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780385422802","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
