Baianism

Baianism is a school of thought credited to the Roman Catholic Michael Baius (1513-1589). It claims thorough Augustinianism over against the scholasticism, which held sway over most Catholic theologians at the time. It is the immediate historical predecessor of Jansenism, and with Jansenism it has been deemed non-orthodox by the Catholic church.
