description: This book reveals the shocking truth you need to know in a world riddled by irrationality emotionalism and violence. Religion is under attack whether from totalitarian governments or modern education. Our tacit submission to politics freedom and science has made us slaves to a diabolical New Atheism and fear.With his prescient wit wisdom and fervor Archbishop Fulton Sheen provides clarity amid propagandist lies and pagan societies united in purpose to destroy. He reminds us why we must fear what kills the soul more than what kills the body. He exposes the false prophets and philosophies at work in the world and the many believers who no longer worship or act in accordance with their beliefs.Archbishop Sheen masterfully decries the divisions and hatreds in America explaining how we have turned from God and are on the precipice that there is too much tolerance of evil and not enough intolerance of injustice. The chastisements the world is facing he declares are a consequence of its sins; they are the result of our abandonment of God our idolatry; and mans attempts to replace God serve only to show that the world is devoid of goodness without His presence.By declaring ourselves independent of God we have brought down His wrath and made ourselves slaves to the world the flesh and the devil. Archbishop Sheen invites us to examine our consciences to see how we have in fact caused the wars in the world. By reading this book you will see how isms control people where the seeds have been planted for them to be controlled. You will learn how throughout history God punishes to destroy evil and at the same time to heal His sons from their sins. In addition you will absorb the future saints teachings on:The presence of the Antichrist in historyThe cause of war  whether or not it is just  and where its greatest tragedy liesHow to truly fight for peace justice and unity in our country and among nationsThe standard to which all Christians should hold themselves Why the Church is opposed to extreme militarism and pacifismWhy those without conscience persecute those with conscienceBest of all Archbishop Sheen explains how Gods wrath is not capricious but is a consequence of our actions how He is good and loving and will not let us drown in our sins and how the key to our restoration  repentance  is readily in our grasp.
