Excerpt from Christianity and Infallibility: Both or Neither
To explain, establish, and defend this thesis is the object of the following Chapters.
By Christianity I mean that body of sacred truths which the Almighty revealed through the min istry of Christ and His Apostles. What I mean by Infallibility is fully explained in Chapter I. To the exposition there given it may be objected that it is too scientific, and will, in its many and sometimes perhaps subtle distinctions, appear unreal to the ordi nary reader. But how otherwise explain fully and accurately, and in a manner to preclude misconcep tion, the Catholic dogma. Any one at all acquainted with non-catholic views of the subject knows that the majority of objections to the dogma arise from a misunderstanding of its true scope and meaning. For this reason it seemed to me that the end I had in view demanded such an exposition as I have given. To assure the reader that this exposition is trust worthy, I have given frequent references to standard writers on the subject, and where available I have given their very words in preference to my own.

Excerpt from Christianity and Infallibility: Both or Neither
The zealous and learned author of this work was delayed in its first publication on my account; a pile of manuscript was too much for me. However, I forced myself to get through with it when I considered how very much more he had to do who had written these papers; and he, too, was sick.
Father Lyons was a ceaseless worker. In the great University of Maynooth his industry and ability made him a class leader - a much-coveted honor. When, after some years on the mission, his health rendered him unfit for the active duties of a priest, he still yearned to co-operate, in some way, with the Divine Master in the salvation of souls. Here came to him a thought which he made known to me: "The American people are intellectually the most just people on earth, no people are more open to conviction. If I can prove to them that Christ Our Lord instituted an infallible authority, that this authority was to last for ever, and that the Catholic Church is this authority, the whole case is won." Thus he thought, and for this purpose, and this alone, did he work.
This new impression is brought out to make reparation for the original delay.
If any financial advantage should come from the sale it will be turned over to St. Thomas Aquinas Sanitarium, Mentone, Cal., for the benefit of the poor sick sufferers cared for by the Sisters of Mercy. This, too, will be the wish of the author; for he loved the sick and poor of Jesus Christ.

The book distinguishes between infallible ex cathedra utterances and doctrinal statements, highlighting the conditions that must be met for a pronouncement to be considered infallible. By dispelling common misconceptions and providing a thorough examination of the subject, this book offers a valuable resource for understanding the nature and scope of papal infallibility within the broader context of Christian belief.
