Is Bellarmine’s “Fourth Proposition” Identical with the “Extreme View” of Albert Pighius?
Christian Washburn has questioned my claim that the idea of a publicly heretical pope was formally excluded in Pastor Aeternus, by equating Bellarmine’s “fourth proposition” with the extreme Ultramontanist school of Albert Pighius.
