This book presents a critique of the lax moral principles proposed by the Jesuit order in the 17th century, revealing how they were used to excuse a wide range of unethical actions. The author, writing under a pseudonym, argues that the Jesuits' teachings on probabilism, which allowed individuals to follow their conscience even if it went against established moral norms, led to a decline in ethical standards and a weakening of religious authority. The book examines specific examples of these principles in practice, such as accepting bribes and engaging in simony, and argues that they undermined the spiritual integrity of the Catholic Church. Ultimately, this book is a powerful indictment of the moral laxity that plagued the Catholic Church during this period and sheds light on the ongoing debate about the relationship between religious authority and individual conscience.
