 | | It does not contain all canon law, which continues to grow, but it is the base of the present-day law, and the study of canon law consists mainly in mastering the code and its application. |  | | The early law grew particularly from the canons of church councils, from the letters of bishops regarding church discipline and governance, and later from papal letters, called decretals, that settled matters of ecclesiastical government and discipline. |  | | The Council of Trent (154563, with interruptions) by its decrees concerning the church and church discipline was a landmark in canon law. |

| | Home Schooling in Canon Law |
 | | To the contrary, the Code of Canon Law has taken great care to protect parental primacy in seeing to the education of children, whether that parental right and duty is legitimately entrusted to others, or whether it is directly exercised by those who will most immediately answer to God for the raising of their children. |  | | Canon law not only allows but also requires that they make this prudential decision; to act otherwise would be a violation of their consciences and thus present a moral impossibility. |  | | As a husband and home-schooling father of four by vocation, canon lawyer by profession, and chancellor of a diocese by employment, I feel the need to defend the canonical right of Catholics to home school as an answer to the mistaken notion that home schooling is somehow not a proper option for Catholic parents. |

| | Canon Law and Abortion |
 | | However, Canon Law is not a moral code, it is the administrative, civil, jurisdictional, procedural and penal law of the Catholic Church. |  | | Canon Law remains a somewhat esoteric and remarkable body of law, one that is rarely discussed with much understanding. |  | | It is subject to many of the same political, administrative and practical influences that shape any other body of law; while the authoritative moral teachings of the Church, per se, belong to a different forum. |

 | | But, as Pope John Paul II explained when he signed the 1983 Code into law, canon law "is in no way intended as a substitute for faith, grace, charisms, and especially charity in the life of the Church and of the faithful. |  | | Peters teaches, writes, speaks, and consults on a wide variety of canonical issues impacting the Church in the United States and around the world. |  | | On the contrary, its purpose is rather to create such an order in the ecclesial society that, while assigning the primacy love, grace, and charisms, it at the same time renders their organic development easier in the life of both the ecclesial society and the individual persons who belong to it."

 | | By the 19th century, it has reached the status of a "strict law" (Boutell) or "definite rule" (Fox-Davies) or "primary fundamental canon of Heraldry" (Woodward, who nevertheless documents violations). |  | | The word "rule" should be understood, not as a prescriptive code of conduct, but as in the phrase: "as a rule, things happen a certain way". |  | | The so-called rule of tinctures is usually stated as follows: " colour cannot be placed upon colour, nor metal upon metal." Fox-Davies adds: "This is a definite rule which must practically always be rigidly obeyed." |

 | | The Code of Canon Law is a document that for the most part does not deal with liturgical law (see canon 2 of both the old and the new codes). |  | | In other words, if a custom has been practiced for 100 years, then even a canon of the 1983 code which specifically mandates that head coverings are not to be worn, cannot usurp the previous custom! |  | | One cannot appeal to the fact that, when a law was in force, people observed the law and say that this resulted in a custom that has force of law even after the law dealing with the matter is abrogated. |

 | | This framework of canon law—comprised of Gratian’s Decretum and the Decretales of Gregory IX would remain in force until 1918 when a new Code of Canon Law was promulgated by the Roman Church. |  | | Canon law, which came under the rubric of the “positive law”, was built atop multiple legal sources (classical Roman law, biblical law, and Germanic law) and, as Gelasian dualism progressively broke down in the period of the Papal Monarchy “the law of the Church” would increasingly become “the law of society”. |  | | The former was a radical violation of the Gelasian dualist maxim, for as its theorists spun its principles out to their logical uttermost it posited that the Pope was not only the unchallengeable head of the Church, but of the entire Christian world, spiritual and temporal. |
