in omnibus caritas in necessariis unitas, in dubiis libertas
  english  
 
Difino
In necessariis unitas, in dubiis libertas, in omnibus caritas is a Latin phrase commonly translated as "unity in certain things; liberty in doubtful things; charity in all things", or, more literally, "in necessary things unity; in uncertain things freedom; in everything compassion".
It is often misattributed to St. Augustine of Hippo, but seems to have been first used in the 17th century by a German Lutheran theologian, Rupertus Meldenius, in the form "in necesariis unita[HTTP ], in non-necessariis liberta[HTTP ], in utrisque charita[HTTP ]", meaning "in certain things, unity; in uncertain things, liberty; in both things, charity".
It is widely quoted in defence of theological and religious freedom. This phrase is the motto of the Cartellverband der katholischen deutschen Studentenverbindungen, ÖCV and CV, the associations of Catholic student fraternities of Austria and Germany.
