HÄBERLIN, JOHANN BAPTIST IGNAZ. - Priest, b. 27 July 1760 at Horb, d. 15 March 1827 at Karlsruhe. Ordained in 1784, he was later parish priest of the church of St. Martin in Freiburg and episcopal commissioner in Breisgau. From 1810 he was ecclesiastical ministerial councillor at Karlsruhe.

A radical upholder of Josephinism, he recognized in the civil authorities the right to administer and dispose of ecclesiastical property without consulting the Supreme Pontiff. In 1812 he published an anonymous pamphlet (An die Souveräne der rheinischen Conföderation über das Recht ihren Staaten eigene Landesbischöfe und eine bischöfliche Diözesaneinteilung nach Gutbefinden zu geben), in which he maintained that the rapid reorganization of the Catholic Church in the states of the Rhenish Confederation depended on the individual sovereigns, who were to proceed, without the aid of concordats or councils, to the delimitation of the new diocesan circumscriptions and to the appointment of bishops.
