Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Catholic Church and Secret Societies
The so-called Secret Society question is the most serious problem facing the Catholic Church in the United States today.
I have for various reasons been compelled to think and study much about this subject.
As a Priest I have studied the situation from the religious point of view, and by dint of perseverance I have the advantage of getting a view in no sense disturbed by prejudice.
In the following pages I am dealing with secret societies as organizations, and not with individual members of such societies. Nine out of every ten of such members do not understand the underlying principles of these societies.
On the correct solution of this momentous question depends the eternal salvation of millions of our fellow-citizens, who, as things are now, are misleading others as they themselves are misled.
I deal with these societies in what I may call a new aspect, for the nature of secret societies as false religions is not yet fully understood.
