Catholic Control of America
Regarding Catholic control of America, Father Bernard Vaughan, an English Roman Catholic prelate, and a delegate to the Eucharistic Congress, says in part: “From what I hear of conditions in the United States, the Catholics will soon control that country through force of numbers. The battle for the possession of the world, will soon be narrowed to the Roman Catholic Church. Protestantism is disappearing.” Every Protestant and every American ought to be stirred by the confident words of this noted Catholic; and he should again consider the fundamental principles of civil and religious liberty which underlie the Constitution of our national Government, with the end in view of preventing the passage of any statute which would pave the way for a union of church and state.
