With Catholic Being Derived From The Latin Word Meaning Universal Are The Religions Catholic And Universalism Alike?
DylanMilliren
The Catholic religion is that religion which is administered from the Vatican. The Universalist religion is a Protestant sect formed in eighteenth-century and was the religion of a number of US Presidents including both Adamses, Fillmore and Taft. As a Protestant sect, it is naturally condemned by the Catholic church, although since it is not a belief held by Catholics it cannot be called a heresy (a heresy is an opinion held by a member of a church which is condemned by that church). A fundamental belief of Catholics is that all people are corrupted by sin and are destined for Hell unless saved by some intervention. A fundamental belief of Universalists is that all people are basically good and are destined for heaven. Many Universalists hold the opinion that their view is in fact more consistent with the teachings of Jesus than that of the Catholic Church.

∙ 8y agoUniversalism is a noun which is the name of a heresy. A heresy is any belief opposed to the Christian faith. Catholic came to describe the Christian Church by the end of the first century as the faith was meant for everyone. Universalism is a belief that no matter what you believe or do, everyone will eventually be saved, i.e. - hell is not eternal. That is a heresy and has nothing to do with Christianity. They are not alike, they are completely opposed to each other.

Is the rule of universal introduction necessary to predicate logic derivations?
It depends what you mean by "necessary". There is a choice of different systems for (classical) predicate logic, but they all give the same results. Universal introduction is certainly a valid principle in predicate logic, so the question is: Does universal introduction have to be one of the basic rules of the system? The answer is no. It can be a derived principle. It is even possible to introduce "for all" as a derived symbol, and only have "there exists" in the basic system. The basic system would have a couple of rules controlling "there exists", and from these rules universal introduction would be a derived principle.
