Pastoral theology, which embraces liturgy, homiletics, and catechetics, proceeded from, and bears close relationship to, moral theology; its dependence on dogmatic theology needs, therefore, no further proof.

Properly applied, of course.

BTW---the lengthy post you placed re: 'pastoral theo' is nice. But the guts were in the short post: "[it] DEPENDS ON dogmatic theo."

To me, that's straightforward: since it is dependent, it cannot CONTRADICT dogmatics, as do, e.g., clown Masses.

That's what I mean by 'properly applied.'

But go ahead--proof-text.
