Replying to Cornwell on Newman

I had missed until today two excellent replies from Fr Tim of Hermeneutic of Continuity to John Cornwell's piece on Newman, about which I commented the other day.

In case you have not seen them I am putting in a link to each.
The first deals with Newman and conscience , and the second with the comments in an address in 1991 of the then Cardinal Ratzinger on conscience.

Both are well worth reading, and contain useful ammunition with which to reply to critics.
