Oath Against Modernism



The Roman Catholic Pope, Saint Pius X, issued the Oath against Modernism on September 1, 1910, and mandated that "all clergy, pastors, confessors, preachers, religious superiors, and professors in philosophical-theological seminaries" should swear to it. The oath continued to be taken until July of 1967 when the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith rescinded it.
