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.

“The author of this book was a Jesuit named Antoine Sirmond”Daniel: his Defense of Virtue occasioned the charge that the Jesuits release men from loving God; he is not the famous SirmondDaniel, Apology, ¶ 47
“the Jesuits did not undertake the defense of the doctrine of Father Antoine Sirmond”Daniel: the Jesuits did not defend his doctrine that no precept binds of itself to acts of affective love, but excused him as following great theologiansDaniel, Apology, ¶ 56
