1) The highest degree of certainty appertains to the immediately revealed truths: God revealing (fides divina), Infallible teaching Authority of the Church (fides catholica), truths defined by a solemn judgment of faith, of the Pope, or of a general council, they are "de fide definita".
2) Catholic truths or Church doctrines, on which the infallible Teaching Authority of the Church has finally decided, are to be accepted with a faith which is based on the sole authority of the church (fides ecclesiastic)
3) A teaching proximate to Faith (sententia fidei proxima) is a doctrine, which is regarded by theologians generally as a truth of Revelation, but which has not yet been finally promulgated as such by the Church.
4) A teaching pertaining to the Faith, i.e. theologically certain (sententia ad fidem pertinens, i.e., theologice certa) is a doctrine on which the Teaching Authority of the Church has not yet finally pronounced, but whose truth is guaranteed by its intrinsic connection with the doctrine of revelation.
5) Common Teaching (sententia communis) is doctrine, which in itself belongs to the field of the free opinions, but which is accepted by theologians generally.
6) Theological opinions of lesser grades of certainty are called probable, more probable, well-founded (sententia probabilis, probabilior, gene fundata); lesser degree of certainty is possessed by pious opinions (sententia pia), and the least by tolerated opinion (opinio tolerata).

Why did the Catholic church allow free thought on the Bible prior to the Inquistions but not during and after the Inquistions?
Roman Catholic AnswerThe question makes no sense as the Church's teaching on the Bible has never changed before, during, or after the Inquisitions. The Inquisitions were Courts of the Church who tried people on the charge of heresy. And there was certainly heresy for many centuries before the Inquisition. As for allowing free thought, the Church has only definitely ruled on the meaning of maybe six verses in the entire Bible. One is free to interpret the Bible as long as one doesn't stray into heresy.

How is the Roman Catholic Church described by Daniel?
Roman Catholic AnswerGod sent the prophet Daniel several visions and prophecies, mostly to interpret dreams of the king. But as he lived six hundred years before Our Blessed Lord established the Church, and God did not send him any visions regarding the future Church, it would have been impossible for him to describe the Catholic Church. Some of his visions are remarkably similar to the book of Revelation, and some heretics see the book of Revelation as referring to the Church.

Can non-Catholics go to reconciliation?
No, Reconciliation is one of the seven sacraments, the first of which is Baptism. Baptism may be received by anyone, the other six sacraments require for their functioning that one first be baptized in a Catholic Church - or be accepted into the Catholic Church if you have been baptized validly elsewhere. To attempt to receive any of those six sacraments is invalid and illicit if you are not a Catholic. If you would like to speak to a priest, call the parish Office of Rectory and make an appointment.
