Voting About God In Early Church Councils
Explores how early Christian doctrines became official. Drawing on extensive verbatim stenographic records, this book analyzes the ecumenical councils from AD 325 to 553, in which participants gave authority to doctrinal choices by majority vote. It describes the planning and staging of councils, the emperors' role, routines of debate, and more.
