Moral Theology: Its Method and Masters

Added because Merkelbach classifies him among the moral systems (Summa II, excursus).
His Moral System, as Our Authors Report It
Every report quoted in the author's own words and linked to its place; point at a name to see his words. Haringer's signs give St. Alphonsus's judgment as Haringer found it in St. Alphonsus's works (his notice, Gury-Ballerini, 1884, p. XI); a sign on a writer the 1884 editor added to the list is the editor's own, and is said to be his.
Our authors disagree. Probabilist: Tanquerey. Equiprobabilist: Merkelbach.
Tanquerey (n. 405) holds that equiprobabilism "does not differ substantially from moderate probabilism", and Marc (n. 86) that the moderate probabilists "agree in substantial matters with the equiprobabilists".

Where Our Authors Discuss Him
Each read in its full passage; the words quoted are the author's own. Where several authors say the same thing, one is quoted and the others follow “in nearly the same words”; point at a name to see his words.
| “Hist., p. 35. b) Among theologians who opposed probabiliorism, very many teach that, in a conflict of opinions, the certainly or notably more probable one is to be followed. … The same teach Ferdinand Rebellus, S.J.; Antonius Perez, O.S.B.; Martinus a Prado, O.P.; Franciscus de Arauxo, O.P.; Antonius Cotonius, O.M.; Passerini de Sextula, O.P.; Esparza, S.J.; Terillus, S.J.; Gabriel Daniel, S.J.; Christ. Rassler, S.J.; Benedict Schmier, O.S.B.; Ant. Mayr, S.J.; Eusebius Amort; Jos. Biner, S.J.; and several others.”Marc names him among those who, against the probabiliorists, teach that the certainly or notably more probable opinion must be followed | Marc, Institutiones I, n. 100 |
