 | | Law in one church, which permits ordination of women as priests, does not authorise consecration of women as bishops, but law of another church does. | | | Indeed, some laws require alteration of the Fundamental Declarations of a church to be 'endorsed by the Archbishop of Canterbury as not affecting the terms of Communion between [that church], the Church of England and the rest of the Anglican Communion'. | | | Canon law is the servant of each Anglican church: it seeks to facilitate and order communion amongst the faithful within each particular church. |

| | Canon law - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Canon law is the term used for the internal ecclesiastical law which governs various churches, most notably the Roman Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Churches and the Anglican Commuion of churches. | | | The way that such church law is legislated, interpreted and at times adjudicated varies widely among these three bodies of churches. | | | Other churches in the Anglican Communion around the world (e.g., the Episcopal Church in the United States, and the Anglican Church of Canada) still function under their own private systems of canon law. |

| | Next, the Canon pertains to those TRUTHS PROPOSED FOR BELIEF BY THE DIVINE AND CATHOLIC FAITH, truths defined as such by the Church, and falling within the realm of the 'Solemn' or the 'Ordinary and Universal' Magisterium. | | | A 'heretic' is defined in Canon 1325 as: 'Any baptized person who, while retaining the name of Christian, obstinately denies or doubts any of the truths proposed for belief by the Divine and Catholic Faith'. | | | Thus a Catholic (even a priest) who believed or taught an heretical doctrine would not be considered obstinate, and thus a heretic within the meaning of the law, until the correct doctrine had been pointed out to him together with the evidence supporting it, and he against such evidence continued to maintain his erroneous belief. |

| | Following the norm of Canon 226 §2, the PCF then reminds parents that should they elect to undertake their children’s education personally, it should be done following the teaching which is handed on by the Church. | | | There is no doubt that the PCF sees no canonical obligation for parents to make use of parish sacramental programs or even Catholic schools if, after a reasoned and prayerful consideration, parents decide to undertake the obligation of educating their children themselves. | | | Among the means to foster education, the Christian faithful are to hold schools in esteem; schools are the principal assistance to parents in fulfilling the function of education. |

was not all which the Roman See owes to Nicolas I; she owes the questionable boon of the recognition of the False Decretals as the law of the Church. |
