Conference

Conferences , of Latin colloquium , religious conferences behaviors with an aim of discussing a point of doctrines or of reconciling various opinions.

Among the principal conferences, one quoted in the first times of the Christianisme:

  • Conference of Cascar in Mésopotamie, between the bishop Archélaus and Manes;
  • Conference of Carthage, between Holy Augustin and the Donatiste S;
  • Conference of Marbourg (1529);
  • Conference of Ratisbon (1541);
  • Conference of Montbeliard (1586);
  • Conference of Bern (1588), between the Catholics and Reformed;
  • Conference of Poissy in 1561, under Charles IX. The purpose of this last was to join together with the Catholic church the Calviniste S of Geneva: the cardinal of Lorraine on a side and Theodore de Bèze of the other played the principal part there; but this conference did not bring any result and did not make that to turn sour the spirits.
