"But I think we shall both judge it to be a melancholy spectacle
when we see the House of Commons led away by declamations on these
topics from the laws which have created Christian Europe and all
that is precious in the English constitution, to approve a policy
subversive of European society...The policy which violates them is
immoral: its end is public lawlessness and its success will be its
own punishment Now I have no deeper conviction than that this
anticatholic movement, led or stimulated by England, will have its
perfect success, and will reign for a time supreme; and next that,
perhaps before we arc in our graves all who have partaken in
it-princes, statesmen and people-will be scourged by a universal
conflict with revolution, and a European war, to which 1793 and the
wars of the first empire are a faint prelude... It seems as if men
had lost their light. How otherwise can we explain the blindness
which cannot see that the conflict of France and Austria has
weakened the Catholic society of Europe, and has given to the
Protestant politics of England and Prussia a most dangerous
predominance? It will not be long before a European war will wear
out and waste the powers of the Christian society including
Protestant and Catholic alike, and will give a fatal predominance
to the antichristian society, or revolution, which is every whore
preparing for the last struggle, and for its supremacy. The
Catholic society of Europe weakened, the Christian society will
soon in turn give way. Then comes the scourge. The conviction I
feel that a great retribution is impending over the anticatholic
movement of England, France, and Italy is rendered all the more
certain by the fact that the critical point in the whole conflict,
the key of the whole and the last success to be gained is the
dethronement of the Vicar of our Redeemer." Cardinal Henry Manning
(1808-1892) St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book will be
sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope Pius XII
wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: "There
rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because
of scandals ' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and
deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines,
theaters, films, in a world of immodesty " We at St. Pius X Press
are calling for a crusade of good books. We want to restore 1,000
old Catholic books to the market. We ask for your assistance and
prayers. This book is a photographic reprint of the original The
original has been inspected and many imperfections in the existing
copy have been corrected. At Saint Pius X Press our goal is to
remain faithful to the original in both photographic reproductions
and in textual reproductions that are reprinted. Photographic
reproductions are given a page by page inspection, whereas textual
reproductions are proofread to correct any errors in reproduction.
