Synopsis

Excerpt from Evolution in Christian Doctrine

It is not easy to find a name for the modern broad school in the Church. The term liberal has predominantly a political meaning. The term broad may indicate mere laxity and indifference. I have decided boldly to adopt the term Modernist. It also is unsatisfactory, for what is modem is by no means always in the line of progress. And the Roman Curia has attached the term Modernist to a circle of beliefs which seldom if ever was found in the mind of a single thinker: it has created a sort of clothes-horse, on which to hang any ws which it regards as dangerous. But we must reflect that nearly all party names were originally the invention of enemies, including even the name Christian; and we may hope to rescue the term Modernist from ignoble use.
