A proposito di questo titolo

In the midst of a profound struggle against the liberal currents within the Church of England, John Henry Newman faced a pivotal moment in his spiritual journey. Despite his earnest efforts to affirm Anglicanism as a legitimate branch of historical Christianity, he ultimately grappled with the painful realization that he could no longer remain part of the Anglican Church. Drawn increasingly toward Catholicism, Newman wrestled with the notion that the Roman Church, while safeguarding many ancient beliefs, had potentially diluted the faith with its own traditions. Yet, could it be that these so-called new doctrines were, in fact, always present from the very beginning, merely becoming more explicit and understood over time? Determined to explore this idea, I resolved to write an essay on Doctrinal Development; and if, upon its completion, my convictions in favor of the Roman Church remained strong, I would seek to enter her fold (Newman, Apologia Pro Vita Sua). - Summary by ekortrightCopyright Religious Texts and Commentary
