They Fought the Good Fight : Orestes Brownson and Father Feeney

by Thomas M. Sennott

The documents and facts presented in They Fought the Good Fight: Orestes Brownson & Father Feeney, speak for themselves, not only illuminating the similarity of thought in two great figures, but shedding considerable light on a key weakness of "liberal catholicism," "americanism," and post-conciliar "neo-modernism," viz. a willingness to compromise on doctrine for the sake of friendship, which in every instance postulates a repudiation in principle or practice of the axiom extra ecclesiam nulla salus, and a minimization of devotion to Our Lady as Mediatrix of All Graces. Not all the problems of the Church in the USA began after the Council.
