Catholic Opposition to Secular Schools

That same Catholic writer who says that “the Roman authorities expect that American sovereignty will endure in Cuba,” also says: “There is no reason, absolutely no reason, why, in a country so thoroughly Catholic as Cuba, religious instruction should be banished from the schoolroom. And if the United States authorities should persist in taking such a step, Catholics throughout the United States will be justified in regarding it as an act of hostility to their religion, an act attributable only to ignorance or bigotry.”
