Synopsis of Theology (Utrecht: Noenardus, 1671), vol. 1, bk. 1, ch. 2, section 47, p. 12 trans. T. Fentiman
“In this scholastic theology is to be praised:
1. the simple and concise kind of language;
2. the accurate and dialectical method;
3. the use or support of philosophy and natural disciplines.
They are to be blamed, however, out of themselves, even the defenders of it, by:
1. the obnoxious doctrine of the papacy unto tyranny; and hence it is false in many ways;
2. the multitude of philosophical things;
3. the curiosity of vain inquiries [or topics];
4. the confusion itself of things, arising out of an ignorance of languages;
5. obscurity and barbarities.”
