Book Description
Excerpt from The Conflict of the Catholic Church With the French Republic, And, the Russian Situation The bitterness of language about the present religious and political crisis in France is very great. On the one side we hear of Papal aggression and of the rebellion of the Catholic Church. On the other side the Republic is charged with outrageous thefts, with falsehood duplicity and hypocrisy, with brutal vindictiveness; the government is spoken of as persecuting, as filled with infidel hatred against the Church and Christianity, as 0p pressing and enslaving the Church and bent on its de struction. It must be confessed that of the two, the dis ciples of the Republic show the better temper, though since the Church is the aggrieved party the greater vio lence of speech may be excused on its side - it having al ways to be borne in mind that Catholics are men as well as Christians. I have no wish to enter into the polemics of the case, but I have been exceedingly interested in try ing to get a clear idea of the situation and to form some judgment as to the real merits of the controversy, and if there are those here Who have been puzzled as I have been by what they have read in the newspapers, possibly my words may be of help to them.

Book Description
This remarkable work traces the history of Soviet Catholicism from its rich life in 1914 through its tentative fate in the first sixty years of the USSR. Rev. Zugger tells of the faithful men and women shackled by dictatorship, doomed to deportation, and abandoned by their own church in the west. Soviet Russia was an empire born of atheism with religion viewed as a threat to the state’s notion of individualism. By 1932, dictator Joseph Stalin firmly declared that religion would be extinct in the USSR within five years. In this compelling volume, Zugger details the Soviet campaign against Catholicism among many ethnic groups and worshippers whose devotion would not be shaken. He shows how they kept faith alive in prison camps, in remote villages, in monastery prisons, and in the secrecy of their homes, where the light of faith continued to burn brightly while churches crumbled or became dance halls and office buildings. This is the first book in English to recount the fate of Catholic Russia and the church in the various lands conquered by Soviet rule. It is at once a memorial to those who perished, a tribute to those who survived, and a testament to the enduring power of faith.

Excerpt from Popery: An Enemy to Civil and Religious Liberty; And Dangerous to Our Republic No member of the Holy Alliance Is Ignorant of the fact, that this sacred light was rekindled by gal lant and religious spirits in the United States and has thrown its radiance across the Atlantic with an intense and alarming brightness. The French. Offi cers and soldiers, who served in the war of our Revolution, learned here a lesson which could not easily be forgotten by them. They perceived the spirit that is breathed by a Protestant people; and tasted the sweets of that liberty which the gallaht citizens of the United States secured to themselves. They went home: the painful contrast, which their trodden-down Catholic country forced upon their hearts, rendered the love of American liberty doubly dear. And they hastened to reduce the lesson they had learned to some practical use. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Roman Catholic Controversy Fellow Citizens: - I come not before you as a sectarian: nor merely as a polemic. The subject of this discussion enlists the feelings of every patriot. It involves not only the deepest interests of our holy religion, but the very existence of our liberties, and the perpetuity of our Republic. We come not before you to oppose the Roman catholic religion, merely as a religion We have a higher, and we trust, a holier aim. Having detected in it, a lurking enemy, conspiring against religion, and the essential interests of our country, we have dragged it forward into the light; and have brought it up to Your tribunal, for public judgment in the case. In our pleadings at your bar, we shall demonstrate that the Roman catholic religion is not found in the Holy Bible; that it has diverged far, in its erratic course, from primitive and pure Christianity; that it stands now separated from it by a gulph, wide as that which separates the prophet of Arabia's Koran from the holy Scriptures of God: and that, as an ancient religion, it is, in fact, the perpetuation of Greek and Roman paganism, - baptised under a new nomenclature. But, we shall not rest satisfied with proving each of these positions. Important as is their truth to the christian community, they cannot, as such, claim national attention. But there is a point in this controversy which does claim your attention, as a nation. For, while pure apostolical Christianity, like its Lord, has not its kingdom of this world: while it shrinks from the unhallowed union with the state; and seeks no political aggrandisement, no civil establishment; no worldly power, or earthly grandeur; while it neither aims at making a tool of statesmen, and politics, nor permits its ministry and sacred things to become the willing tool of a carnal policy; the Roman catholic system is, in all points, the reverse of this. It is, as we shall see from its creed, and from historical documents, a system of mere human policy; altogether of a foreign origin; foreign in its support; and bringing with it, over the face of society, wholly a hostile foreign influence. Its pope and priests are politicians, men of the world, and mere men of pleasure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
