A supernatural power may dissolve both the natural and supernatural bonds through the exercise of the ‘ Potestas Vicaria’ of the Roman Pontiff who exercises it not as the Supreme Head of the Universal Catholic Church but in virtue of his prerogative as the “ Vicarius Christi ” on earth. The correct exercise of the divine power is based on theology and grounded in canonical science. Its right understanding and interpretation are harmonious employment of the metaphysical principles applied in theological and canon sciences. The author traces the theological foundation of the potestas vicaria in Sacred Scriptures and Sacred Traditions constantly interpreted and enriched by the Church living Magisterium. The ‘ potestas divina et vicaria’ exercise is based on the canonical provisions and praxis starting from the 7th century. The vicarious power exercised by the Church in the name of God is also referred to as ‘ Potestas Instrumentalis’ , i.e., Instrumental Power. A clearer understanding of the philosophy of this instrumental causality applied in theology and canon law implies a great deal of comprehension of some notion of causality proper of metaphysics.

Primera, subrayar que en la instauración de un convento femenino intramuros Manila existió un proceso de selección riguroso destinado a minorías. Segunda, demostrar que en el convento se privilegió el prototipo de las “mujeres de calidad” basado en proteger la riqueza familiar; para esta época es anacrónico hablar del color de la piel basado en la presencia de “mujeres blancas” y muy arriesgado afirmar la existencia de “mujeres españolas” como símbolo de distinción. Existió la necesidad, por razones católicas, de proteger a las hijas de familias beneméritas, centrada en reproducir el ideal de una mujer recatada, devota, virgen, monógama en aras de apartarla de la oferta matrimonial ante la imposibilidad de encontrarle un “marido a propósito”, así los caudales no caerían en manos de sus cónyuges, aquí “los primeros de Filipinas” transformados en ricos encomenderos se proyectan en las mujeres al exaltar una serie de valores que precisan decencia, distinción y privilegio, propios de los estamentos adinerados, en consecuencia cuando las doncellas ingresaran en el convento incrementaría la soltería en la capital y se dificultarían los matrimonios","PeriodicalId":40744,"journal":{"name":"Philippiniana Sacra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46283319","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since works printed before 1623 do not contain images of this format, the illustrations in the 1623 Virgen S.

Universities are in crisis, and as never before, they must justify their usefulness for society. It is claimed that in order to answer that crisis, universities should become business-like entities governed and managed in terms of demand/supply and efficiency. We claim—and exemplify that claim with the case of Philippine universities—that no university in a classical sense can be turned into a business without destroying it for the two domains have different founding principles, values, norms, and actions.

Tolerance would ultimately fail due to the many religious conflicts and constant doctrinal disagreements between various Christian groups, requiring new solutions in order to rule over a more peaceful population. The will to reach a doctrinal consensus that would not undermine the emperor’s powers in the management and arbitration of religious matters, as well as intervention by civil authority in fields that traditionally fell under ecclesiastic jurisdiction, would give rise to a confrontation with part of the Church which would resist the emperor’s strategy to reach a consensus in religious matters.","PeriodicalId":40744,"journal":{"name":"Philippiniana Sacra","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43383632","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
