Thesignsofinternationalunrest,of attemptedsubversionoftruthsupon whichthefabricofcivilisationrested. andofdisregaidofauthority,said FatherHogg.pointedtoamenacing stateofaffairs,andpeoplewereasking whetherWesterncivilisationwas doomed.Itwasasked,too,ifWesterncivilisationwasfoundedonChristianity,whetherthelatterhadnot failedthem.

ExaminingtherelationshipofChristianityandcivilisation,hereferred themtotheinfluenceoftheCatholic ChurchfromthedaysofpaganRome. Shefound,heproceeded,norespect forlife,andtaughtequnlity,inthe eyesofGod,ofmanandwoman,and
