I. MORAL CAUSES: CURIOSITY AND PRIDE
II. INTELLECTUAL CAUSES
III. ARTIFICES OF THE MODERNISTS FOR THE PROPAGATION OF THEIR ERRORS
Q. Are the Modernists zealous in propagating their pernicious system?
A. Would that they had but displayed less zeal and energy in propagating it! But such is their activity and such their unwearying labour on behalf of their cause, that one cannot but be pained to see them waste such energy in endeavouring to ruin the Church, when they might have been of such service to her had their efforts been better directed.
Q. Do the Modernists employ artifice in this active propaganda to spread abroad their system?
A. Yes; and their artifices to delude men s minds are of two kinds.
Q. What are these two kinds of artifices?
A. The first to remove obstacles from their path, the second to devise and apply actively and patiently every resource that can serve their purpose.
