關於這本電子書

In March 1186, Archbishop John of Dublin held a council addressing the moral integrity of the Irish clergy during Lent. The council featured sermons from various church leaders, including Abbot Albinus, who criticized the influence of foreign clergy on local morals, and Archbishop Giraldus, who highlighted both the piety and vices of the clergy. Albinus's sermon led to public accusations among the clergy regarding concubinage, prompting disciplinary actions. Giraldus emphasized the need for better pastoral care and correction from bishops, arguing that neglecting these duties allowed moral decay to persist within the church.
