<a href="/wiki/Christian_theology" title="Christian theology">Christian theological</a> position that holds that <a href="/wiki/Fall_of_man" title="Fall of man">the fall</a> did not taint <a href="/wiki/Human_nature" title="Human nature">human nature</a> and that humans by divine grace have <a href="/wiki/Free_will" title="Free will">free will</a> to achieve human perfection. <a

style="white-space:nowrap;"> 420</span> AD), an ascetic and philosopher from the British Isles, taught that God could not command believers to do the impossible, and therefore it must be possible to satisfy all divine commandments. He also taught that it was unjust to punish one person for the sins of another; therefore, infants are born blameless. Pelagius accepted no excuse for sinful behaviour and taught that all Christians, regardless of their station in life, should live unimpeachable, sinless lives. </p><p>To a large degree, "Pelagianism" was defined by its opponent <a href="/wiki/Augustine" class="mw-redirect" title="Augustine">Augustine</a>, and exact definitions remain elusive. Although Pelagianism had considerable support in the contemporary <a href="/wiki/Christian_world" class="mw-redirect" title="Christian world">Christian world</a>, especially among the Roman elite and <a href="/wiki/Monk" title="Monk">monks</a>, it was attacked by Augustine and his supporters, who had opposing views on grace, predestination and free will. Augustine proved victorious in the <a href="#Pelagian_controversy">Pelagian controversy</a>; Pelagianism was decisively condemned at the 418 <a href="/wiki/Council_of_Carthage" class="mw-redirect" title="Council of Carthage">Council of Carthage</a> and is regarded as heretical by the <a href="/wiki/Roman_Catholic_Church" class="mw-redirect" title="Roman Catholic Church">Roman Catholic Church</a> and <a href="/wiki/Eastern_Orthodox_Church" title="Eastern Orthodox Church">Eastern Orthodox Church</a>. For centuries afterward, "Pelagianism" was used in various forms as an accusation of <a href="/wiki/Heresy" title="Heresy">heresy</a> for Christians who hold unorthodox beliefs, but some recent scholarship has offered a different opinion. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Background">Background</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Pelagianism&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Background"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Christianity_in_late_antiquity" title="Christianity in late antiquity">Christianity in late antiquity</a></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="/wiki/Christianity_in_the_4th_century" title="Christianity in the 4th century">Christianity in the 4th century</a> and <a href="/wiki/Christianity_in_the_5th_century" title="Christianity in the 5th century">Christianity in the 5th century</a></div> <p>During the fourth and fifth centuries, the Church was experiencing rapid change due to the <a href="/wiki/Constantinian_shift" title="Constantinian shift">Constantinian shift</a> to Christianity.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEHarrison201678_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHarrison201678-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Many Romans were converting to Christianity, but they did not necessarily follow the faith strictly.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKirwan1998_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKirwan1998-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> As Christians were no longer <a href="/wiki/Persecution_of_Christians_in_the_Roman_Empire" title="Persecution of Christians in the Roman Empire">persecuted</a>, they faced a new problem: how to avoid backsliding and nominal adherence to the <a href="/wiki/State_religion" title="State religion">state religion</a> while retaining the sense of urgency originally caused by persecution.
