Vatican Council, First, or Vatican I (1869–70). A
Roman Catholic council. Called by Pope Pius IX. This council adopted only two constitutions, despite the advance preparation of fifty-one
schemata. The constitution on
faith,
Dei Filius, dealt with God as creator,
revelation, faith, and faith's relationship to reason, adopting positions similar to those of St Thomas
Aquinas. The
schema on the
Church was not voted on; instead, the question of the
papacy was brought forward, although many (e.g. J. H.
Newman) regarded this as inopportune. The constitution
Pastor Aeternus defined the primacy of the pope and also his
infallibility when he speaks
ex cathedra, i.e. when as chief pastor of the Church he defines a doctrine on faith or morals to be held by the whole Church.
After Italian troops occupied Rome, the Council was suspended in Oct. 1870. It never reconvened, and the incompleteness of its work led to a serious imbalance in RC Church teaching.
