Mr. Michael Davies treats here in detail of the turn of the century Modernist movement. While he admits that some of the reaction to the Modernists struck at men and ideas which ought not to have been chastised, he nevertheless shows that real Modernism is a totally unacceptable and truly dangerous rejection of the very idea of the supernatural. He also recounts the battle of Pius X with Modernism. Taken from: The Church of Eugenio Pacelli - 2000 VonHildebrand Institute
