Fundamental Theology
This course studies the nature of revelation and the revelatory process as understood within the Roman Catholic tradition. It also examines the related topics of faith, belief and unbelief; theology and theological method; tradition and the development of doctrine; indefectibility and infallibility in Church teaching; the exercise of doctrinal authority in the Catholic Church through dogmatic and magisterial pronouncements; and the limitation on authority and dissent. Its goal is to empower the student to understand the foundations of our faith and have the tools necessary to proclaim it convincingly and respond reasonably and effectively to the challenges presented against it. REVISED FOR 2013/14 CATALOGUE.
