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.

Charged with laxity
“Chapter II — The lax opinions of several Casuists … XXIV. Whether in debts of justice there can be given compensation by a gift or by gratuitous service? Fr. Diana, Vol. VI, tract 3, resolution 152, answers in the affirmative.”Concina's censuses of lax opinions list names him in 1 more as teaching or approving one (the first is quoted; every one is under 'Where Our Authors Discuss Him')Concina, Compendium II, bk. IX, diss. I, ch. II, n. XXIV
