Loisy was of a poor family and raised in a rural environ. His first encounter with other seminarians was a shock: he was snubbed and his devotional intellect was ridiculed. He despised mediocrity and intellectuals of his time. He gave them a taste of what he was capable in the intellectual field where he was far superior to all of them. His arrogance and his intellectual position did not warrant him any promotion in the church. He grew ever more more resentful and transferred his hostility toward the Vatican. He might as well have said Vatican instead of church but he was too smart for that.
