| | Pope Pius IX: Biography |
 | | Pius IX was the fourth son of Girolamo Mastai-Ferretti, gonfalonier of Senigallia, and the countess Caterina Solazzi. | | | The Pope had previously made extensive inquiries among the bishops and other divines and there was little opposition to such an exercise of his undoubted prerogative. | | | The Risorgimento not only convinced Pius that liberalism in the church must be destroyed but also placed the liberal Catholics in the difficult position of appearing to support those who had caused him so much distress. |

| | Arms of Pope Pius IX On the following morning, the senior Cardinal-Deacon announced the election of Cardinal Mastai-Ferreti before what had to be a shocked crowd of faithful Catholics. | | | The conclave of 1846, following the death of Pope Gregory XVI (1831–46), was one which took place within an unsettled political climate in Italy. | | | In spiritual matters Pius IX was much more vigorous. |

| | Pope Pius IX |
| | In his capacity as head of the Church, Pius IX adhered to the principles of the Ultramontanist party, and contributed materially to the victory of that cause. | | | The zenith of Pius's pontificate was attained on the 18th of July 1870 when the Vatican council proclaimed the infallibility of the pope and the universality of his episcopate, thus elevating him to a pinnacle which none of his predecessors had reached and at the same time fulfilling his dearest wish. | | | On the 17th of the same month Pius made a public protest; and, as soon as the elections for a national assembly were announced, he forbade any participation in them, menacing the disobedient with the penalties of the Church (January 1, 1849). |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Pope Pius IX |
| | Pius VII appointed him spiritual director of the orphan asylum popularly known as "Tata Giovanni", in Rome, and in 1823 sent him, as auditor of the Apostolic delegate, Mgr Muzi, to Chile in South America. | | | The concordat which Pius IX had concluded with Russia in 1847 remained a dead letter, horrible cruelties were committed against the Catholic clergy and laity after the Polish insurrection of 1863, and all relations with Rome were broken in 1866. | | | In Piedmont the Concordat of 1841 was set aside, the tithes were abolished, education was laicized, monasteries were suppressed, church property was confiscated, religious orders were expelled, and the bishops who opposed this anti-ecclesiastical legislation were imprisoned or banished. |

| | PIUS IX |
| | This, the twentieth ecumenical council, proclaimed as a dogma that the pope when speaking ex cathedra, that is, as pope, can make no mistake in solemn declarations of what must be believed in matters of faith and morals. | | | This was an assertion of papal infallibility and a challenge to a materialistic age which had little belief in original sin. | | | If Pius was unfortunate in the temporal sphere, he showed himself a vigorous leader in spiritual matters. |

| | Pius IX (Giovanni Maria Mastai-Ferretti, 1792-1878) |
| | Following his return to Rome in 1850, Pius IX, who had abandoned liberalism and resisted secularization, refused to negotiate on the issue of the temporal power, which he deemed essential for the preservation of the church. | | | Determined to safeguard the church against the war he believed was being waged against religion, Pius favored neoscholasticism and centralization. | | | The cycle came to an end, Pius explained, when the revolutionaries wanted him to play the part of an aggressor; he refused, and was forced to flee from his state. |

| | The Beatification of Pope Pius IX by John W. O'Malley , America: The Catholic Weekly Magazine |
| | Pius had the longest pontificate in the history of the church. | | | Pius wrote in 1877, the year before his death, “I exclude the possibility of any relation, even indirect, with men who have despoiled the church.” As “Vicar of a crucified God,” he would gladly suffer, but never compromise. | | | The conclusion is surely inescapable that the beatification of Pius IX is the work of a small group of ultra-conservatives.” In Italy, I am informed, the political left is howling with feigned indignation, which masks its genuine glee that the Catholic Church has through this action once again manifested its true, fascist character. |

| | The actions of Pius IX are not defensible in today’s understanding, and would not be defended by the Church. | | | If the Pope did not remain a temporal king, then it seemed he could no longer be the Church’s chief bishop.” [5] That firm belief was central to Church’s understanding from 1814 on. | | | Pius IX exerted as much pressure as he could to secure the definition of papal infallibility, proclaiming famously to one cardinal, “I am the church! |

| | THE HUMOUR OF POPE PIUS IX |
| | It has been said of Pius IX that he was at once the most loved and the most hated of all popes: the most dissimilar judgments have been passed on his multiform activity during the thirty-two years of his reign. | | | The Pope, after expressing to the venerable ecclesiastic his joy at receiving him, invited him to sit down. | | | Furthermore, Louis Veuillot narrates in one of his letters how one day he had to present to Pius IX the Superior General of the Sulpicians, Monsieur Carrière. |
