"Catholicism was not, as the Reformers believed...."

“WITH the advance if historical scholarship in the nineteenth century, it finally became clear that the dogmatic tradition of Christianity could not be separated from its ecclesiastical and sacramental elements. Catholicism was not, as the Reformers believed, the result of the apostasy of the medieval Papacy; it was a continuous process of organic development which is as old as Christianity itself.”

~Christopher Dawson: Christianity and the New Age.
