Not a Franciscan
To the Editors: In an otherwise insightful and engaging piece, Garry Wills makes a significant blunder in his article “The Vatican Monarchy” [NYR, February 19, 1998]. On page 23 ugg boots sale, he refers to “the Franciscan Bernard of Clairvaux….” Indeed, Bernard belonged to the Benedictine not the Franciscan Tradition. Later, on that same page, he writes: “Modern Franciscans, despite the warning of Saint Bernard, had made devotion to the Immaculate Conception a staple of their theology.” Modern Franciscans do just that 444444, not despite Saint Bernard’s warning, but on account of the defense of the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception by the fourteenth-century Franciscan theologian John Duns Scotus ugg boots genuine, among those beatified by John Paul II. Indeed, Scotus would argue that such a doctrine does not make Mary “superhuman,” as Wills says, but rather the model of what it means to be human. (Rev.) Anthony M. Carrozzo, O.F.M.

My excuse is that The Oxford Book of Dreams attributes this passage (Journal 1815) to Mary Wollstonecraft rather than to her daughter—who was UGG Boots Accessories, of course, the one alive at this date.
