A Reinterpretation of the Fifth Lateran Council Decree Apostolici Regiminis (1513).

'Apostolici regiminis is not a dogmatic declaration on the immortality of the soul but rather a dogmatic condemnation of the so-called doctrine of the double truth'. Gilles de Viterbo: 357-60, 372: 'Despite his probable role in the genesis of the bull, Giles of Viterbo was not appointed in the commission that drafted Apostolici regiminis, though he was present at the general congregation which approved the decree. As one of the more prominent churchmen in attendance, his influence may have been a significant factor in the general congregation's nearly unanimous acceptance of the decree... the combination of Giles' intellectual allegiances, political influence and role at the council has led John O'Malley to conclude "there is every reason to believe that he supported or even promoted the Fifth Lateran Council's condemnation which were attributed to this (Padua) school" of Aristotelism; Martin Luther: 370.
