主教的地位

According to Syracuse history professor Margaret Susan Thompson, who researched the archives of 75 religious order,"nuns had no standing; even Mother Superior wouldn't call a bishop."

锡拉丘兹市的历史学教授玛格丽特苏珊汤普森研究过75个教团的卷宗，据她讲，"修女没有什么地位；即使女修道院院长也不能召唤主教。"

The reason is mainly the predominant influence of the laity under whose control the ecclesiastics were placed by the synodal constitution.

其原因主要是占主导地位的影响俗人其控制下的教区被置於由主教会议的宪法。

During the pontificate of Innocent III (1198-1216) there appears to have occurred much growth in the reform of the church and in its freedom from subservience to the empire as well as in the primacy of the bishop of Rome and in the summoning of ecclesiastical business to the Roman curia.

在教皇的无辜三（ 1198年至1216年），似乎发生了很大增长，改革教会和在其免於屈从帝国以及中的首要地位是罗马的主教和教会的传唤企业的罗马教廷。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
