Book excerpt: Excerpt from Moral Theology of the Church of Rome, Vol. 3 The meaning of nihil censure'i dignam is then further explained to be a true approbation, by which it is certain that the whole 'teaching of our saintly author is altogether free from every error which the Church now sees to be error. The works of S. Alfonso, therefore, rejoice in this highest and singular privi lege, which those of no uncanonized moral writers can possess, 'for in the case of the latter it is not made certain by so solemn a judgment of the Church, that there is no error, no erroneous principle, no erroneous Opinion in their writings. But we are now made quite sure, by the infallible judgment of the Catholic Church, that in S. Alfonso's works, in the whole of his Moral Theology, there is not one principle disapproved, not one Opinion 'against the faith or good morals, new, unaccordant with the sense of the Church, heretical, erroneous, approaching to error, savouring of heresy or error, suspected of error, rash, scan dalous, Offensive to pious ears, ill-sounding, misleading to the simple, schismatical, injurious, impious, or blasphemous. And this being so, who will not confess that, in the matter of morals, 'grave and difficult as it is, and so involved with doubts and questions, minds are wonderfully set at rest by an approbation of this nature, which, if not called formally positive, is practi cally the same?' Neyraguet is no less happy and confident. Having quoted the approbation of Pope Pius VII., Pope Leo XII., Pope Pius VIII., and Pope Gregory XVI., he continues: Thus by 'acting and by teaching, to heaven flew Off the Blessed One. What can you prize higher? What happier lot can you wish for 'yourself? There is then no danger of erring, no possibility of fearing hell in following the steps of so great a man. It is 'no wonder, therefore, that in these times this Theology is everywhere desired and sought after; that it is extolled with 'the highest praises by prelates of Churches, and the chiefest doctors, not only in Italy, but also in Germany, Belgium, France, &c.; that it is circulated throughout the whole world, and is in the hands of almost all the clergy. What then can be more absurd than to find fault with a work of such singular excellence, which innumerable doctors and so many oracles of the Holy See have so highly commended I' About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
