List of points

Formerly, since human knowledge — science — was very limited, it seemed quite feasible for a single learned individual to undertake the defence and vindication of our holy Faith.

To-day, with the extension and the intensity of modern science, the apologists have to divide the work among themselves, if they want to defend the Church scientifically in all fields.

You… cannot shirk this responsibility.

Et unam, sanctam, catholicam et apostolicam Ecclesiam! — I can understand why you pause to relish your prayer: I believe in the Church, one, holy, Catholic and apostolic…

What joy to be able to say with all the fervour of my soul: I love my Mother the holy Church!

In that cry serviam! you express your determination to 'serve' the Church of God most faithfully, even at the cost of fortune, of reputation and of life.

Have veneration and respect for the holy Liturgy of the Church and for its ceremonies. Observe them faithfully. Don't you see that, for us poor men, even what is greatest and most noble must enter through the senses?

To serve as a loud-speaker for the enemy is the height of idiocy; and if the enemy is God's enemy, it is a great sin. That is why, in the professional field, I never praise the knowledge of those who use it as rostrum from which to attack the Church.
