7 mar 1791 ano - Pope Pius XI decides that the oath is
against the beliefs of the church. He
condemned those who took the oath
and chastised Louis XVI for signing
the document allowing the oath to
happen. The oath was disliked by
some of the French population and
the other 50% of the clergy. Legislation
against the clergy soon came into place,
forcing them into exile or execution if
they did not comply. This greatly
isolated the french church.
