1548, Thirty years after the Fifth Council of the Lateran



We are in the year 1548 and it's been a year since the Council of Trent
                                                                  [was discontinued and it has not yet resumed,
this highly important Council for the whole of Christianity,
                                                                      [which indicated that success was doomed.....

Finally this 19th ecumenical council of the Roman Catholic Church
                      [after two long interruptions that began in 1545 and ended in the year 1563,
and it's decision was the formal Roman Catholic reply to the doctrinal challenges
                                [of the Protestant Reformation; they divided the Christians into three,
to Orthodox Christians, Catholic Christians, and recently Protestant Christians,
                              [a division of the children of God that should not be, in my humble opinion,
but surely the Christians should not be divided, undoubtedly, correct me if I'm wrong,
  [because I'm just a poor inhabitant of the earth....Burns*,"thy poor, earth-born companion"

*The Fifth Council of the Lateran (1517) is the Eighteenth Ecumenical Council to be recognized by the Roman Catholic Church and the last one before the Protestant Reformation.

*Robert Burns :
Scottish poet regarded as a pioneer of the Romantic movement  (25 January 1759 – 21 July 1796), also known familiarly as Rabbie Burns, the National Bard, Bard of Ayrshire and the Ploughman Poet and various other names and epithets, was a Scottish poet and lyricist. He is widely regarded as the national poet of Scotland and is celebrated worldwide. He is the best known of the poets who have written in the Scots language, although much of his writing is also in English and a light Scots dialect, accessible to an audience beyond Scotland. He also wrote in standard English, and in these writings his political or civil commentary is often at its bluntest.
After his death he became a great source of inspiration to the founders of both liberalism and socialism, and a cultural icon in Scotland and among the Scottish diaspora around the world.
