Sažetak
Marko Antun de Dominis was and has remained a controversial person. Using the same vocabulary to condemn the Catholic Church in his first phase, he also condemned Protestantism in his second phase. However, in both his phases there was the many times repeated wish for unity of Christians. In his time he saw that Christians- Catholics, Orthodox’s, various Protestants are really like one when basic items of Christian faith is considered. These should be the grounds for further building of unity. The basis is, according to him, the “Church of Christ”. It can not be but one as it can not be but one Christ and therefore “one altar”. He speaks much less of heresies and much more of schisms among Christians which, as he clams, should not have happened since there are no significant heresies among Christians. Hierarchy in the Church should allow the bishops not to be only fully responsible for the local church but to share responsibility for the entire Church. Today’s review of Marko Antun de Dominis may be: he was much less a heretic and much more a reformer. He wanted to reform the Church from within. In the issues of acumen he was de predecessor to many modern ecumenical movements
