And I find it interesting that Pope Pius IX sent a personal letter to Brownson declaring him "Defender of the Faith," much to the embarrassment of the Fathers at the Second Council of Baltimore (1866) who were a little humbled that a layman would be named over them. Why did not Pius IX send this letter to Newman instead? Newman was well known at this time, and it was also a well-known fact that Brownson and Newman were opponents on the "Development of Doctrine" issue.

Henry VIII once held the same title.

PS: Pope Pius IX was the one who awarded Cardinal Newman his Doctorate of Divinity in 1846 (i.e., after he had already written An Essay on the Development of Doctrine, which was in 1845).

Brownson was indeed a king, but he had only one wife. And yes, Pius IX did do this, during the first year of his papacy, while the freemasons were applauding his election.

That didn't work out too well for the Freemasons, did it?

Yeah, Pius IX was quasi-modernist in his first years. Then he had a 'wake up' call.
