The Idol Demolished By Its Own Priest: An Answer To Cardinal Wiseman�������s Lectures On Transubstantiation is a book written by James Sheridan Knowles in 1851. The book is a response to a series of lectures given by Cardinal Wiseman on the topic of transubstantiation, which is the belief that the bread and wine used in the Eucharist become the actual body and blood of Christ.In the book, Knowles argues against the doctrine of transubstantiation and presents a critique of Cardinal Wiseman's lectures. He argues that the doctrine is not supported by scripture and that it is a form of idolatry to worship the bread and wine as if they were actually the body and blood of Christ.Knowles also criticizes the Catholic Church for its use of Latin in the Mass, arguing that it prevents people from understanding the true meaning of the Eucharist. He suggests that the Mass should be conducted in the language of the people so that they can fully participate in the worship service.Overall, The Idol Demolished By Its Own Priest is a passionate and well-reasoned argument against the doctrine of transubstantiation and the practices of the Catholic Church. It is an important historical document that sheds light on the religious debates of the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
