Inos Biffi

Inos Biffi (born 1934), Italian theologian.

• The Middle Ages as a whole and throughout their duration – with all the ambiguity of their chronological boundaries and of the very expression "Middle Ages" – prove to be an incomparable season of the culture of reason.
  • Inos Biffi, Atlante storico della cultura medievale in Occidente, (Roberto Barbieri; Milano, Città Nuova - Jaca Book, 2007, vol. 1, pp. 124-27). As quoted in in Francesco Lamendola, Il Medioevo fu un'incomparabile stagione di cultura della ragione (February 2, 2009)

• The Lord sent his apostles to proclaim and bear witness to his Gospel throughout the whole world, so that all men – absolutely all men – might become believers in Him. It follows that his disciple will not blush to proclaim that the only "true religion" – to use Augustine's words – is that announced by Christ and in actuality in Him; that there is no Christian God and, equivalent or almost equivalent to him, the God of other religions, even if monotheistic, but that the only true God is the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, or the Trinity.
