The Roman Inquisition
As early as 1571, they set up a commission adjacent to the actual Roman Inquisition. Some of these books took 40, 50 years to get banned because they just didn't get around to reading them. The last index was printed in 1948. And it wasn't until 1966 that they issued a final decree saying, look, we're not going to even issue decrees anymore. Nevertheless, we're still leaving it in all good Catholic's hands to exercise their own judgment in consultation with their priests.
