NOR does it necessarily follow that Protestants and Catholics will, in future political contests, be opposing forces, and thus neutralize one another's influence. On what are very generally regarded as the most vital religio-political questions of the day, Roman Catholics and Protestants are a unit. On the general principle of religious legislation there is no difference of opinion between apostate Protestantism and Romanism; both believe in it. In the past both have endeavored to so shape legislation as to benefit only themselves. In the future they will compromise and so shape legislation as to bolster up the dogmas which they hold in common. Freedom of conscience in the United States has nothing to hope for from the differences between Romanism and Protestantism.
