Modernism Explained | The “Synthesis of All Heresies” & Catholic Teaching

Описание: What is Modernism, and why did the Church call it the “synthesis of all heresies”? Dr. Christopher Mooney and Dr. Jim Prothro from the Augustine Institute explain one of the most complex and controversial heresies the Church has faced.

👉 In this episode, you’ll learn:
o Why Modernism is hard to define compared to other heresies
o How Modernism twists the idea of doctrinal development
o The difference between true growth in understanding and changing dogma
o Why the Church rejected the idea that new truths replace old truths
o The story of Alfred Loisy, a priest excommunicated for Modernist errors
o Why St. John Henry Newman was suspected but not guilty of Modernism
o The dangers of rejecting Revelation and reducing faith to human ideas
o How Pope St. Pius X and St. John Paul II responded to Modernism
o Why both Modernism and its opposite extreme, Traditionalism, miss the truth

By studying Modernism, Catholics today can better understand the continuity of the Church’s teaching, how Revelation is both eternal and unfolding in history, and why true faith is never about choosing between “old vs. new” but about holding fast to Christ, the one Truth
