Excerpt from The Divinity School and the Divinity Degrees of the University of Dublin
This objection, which has been seriously made, shows an utter want of comprehension of the vast importance of the connection of the Divinity School with the University. It is not the present endowments of that School which are of so much importance to the Church as the status which the Church possesses at present, by virtue of its Divinity School forming an integral part of a distinguished University. The retention of that status is of more advantage to the Church (even were all the endowments connected with it swept away) than the pos session of a well-endowed Theological College, deprived of all connection with the University. Monty can be obtained by a little effort, but such a status once lost can never be regained.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on a debate about the future of the Divinity School of Trinity College, Dublin and the granting of Divinity Degrees at the University of Dublin. The author believes preserving the Divinity School's status as part of the University is of the utmost importance for church and university. He advocates that the present Divinity Degrees should be open to people not in holy orders, as the degrees themselves have no necessary connection with the Divinity School. The book suggests reforms are needed in the Divinity School itself, arguing that the current system has done good service but is capable of more. The author calls for reforms such as opening up Divinity Professorships to clerical graduates of the Church of Ireland and allowing students to select the lecturers they deem most profitable. Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the importance of the Divinity School maintaining its connection with the University.
