The menace. [volume] (Aurora, Mo.) 1911-1920, 1919-06-07


history and events, and to the end of satur-
ating young minds with mixture of its own
debasing superstitions coupled with it's equal
ly cOrrupting ideas concerning the right of
popery to rule mankind by divine right.
POpery would capture America by capti-
waiting the minds of its people, an attack that
Is made with greater ease upon the young
whose ideas are in process of formation than
upon elder persons who have already begun
to think for themselves. That is why pop
ery's chief concern in the United States is
about education of youth. The public school
is unsatisfactory to the pOpes and their
agents. 1t is their wish that citizens-tO-be.
should come early under the influence of
male and female Jesuits for the simple rea-
son that "the tree will grow the way the
tWig's inclined"
POpery is equally sOlcitous concerning
the moving picture entertainments which are
so literally patrOnized by the young. Gen.
sOrship is demanded on the plea Of prevent
ing Immoral pictures" and that censorship
is utilized to introduce rOsaries, cruciixes,
garbed nuns, black -rObed clerics, and every
thing imaginable to familiarize the young
with ROmish paraphernalia so they may be
the more cOmplacently tolerated now and the
more readily embraced later.
POpery is equally insistent upon censor
ship Of the press which is the American
school OF adults. Its agents are nOisily fear
full that American civilization may be cor
rupted by the contents Of newspapers, peri
Odicals and books which ignore pOpery or
challenge its claims. Publishers who exer-
else their right to criticise Rome or print
things uncOmplimentary of its emiSsaries are
disciplined by the ROmish boycott; and pa
pers which have been disciplined are induced
to print those silly stories of miraculous
cures and miracles performed by means of
decayed saints bones which so often offend
the good taste and common sense of readers.
Free schools. free stage, free press. and
free speech are so abhOrrent to p0pery that
it would like to suppress them all if it could;
but since it cannot, it finds it expedient to
corrupt or cripple them as it can by means
OF censOrs or by the introduction of its own
matter in place of instructive publicity. All
this Is to the end of stppressing American
ism and promoting ROnlanism. 1t is part of
the program for conquest by means Of false
teaching and suppression of truth.
Protestant ministers of the Protestant
churches are certainly more or less familiar
with the attitude Of Rome toward them and
their work, SO we need not consider that
here. The martyrs tell that story with an
eloquence to which little could be added save
reminder OF the fact that Rome treats
Professionalism generally with the same in
tolerant contempt now as throughout the
past.
Wherein are PrOtestants, of pew or pul-
pit, bound by any considerations whatever
to welcome this papal invasion or comfort
the enemies of our country with unprotest-
ing silence? Are they not rather bound to
do what they can to expose this invasion to
the just resentment Of every fellow country
man?
If those, who are specially commissioned
by preachers license to teach the many from
the vantage Of their pulpits, fail to act con-
sistently to serve their country's interest
they cannot complain if regarded by sincere
cOuntrymen as slackers and unworthy of the
special trust reposed in them.
Those who are familiar with eccIesias.
tical history are well aware that Jesuitisn
has supplanted Christianity in the polity and
teaching Of the Roman Catholic organization
Jesuitism is the philosophy of monarchism;
and the Jesuits were organized to use Rome
as means of saving monarchs from the ris.
ing tide of democracy.
If you have any doubt as to the accuracy
Of the foregoing statement, read footprints
Of the Jesuits" by r. W. Thompson who was
secretary of the navy III the cabinet of Pres
ident Hayes. AT leastado not deny it until
you have read a standard history Of Jesuit
ism so as to know howthey were organized
by crippled but ambitious soldier Of Spair
to win him the glory through intrigue which
his wounds denied hirf in his original pro
! fessiOn of arms.
Nothing in history Is more romantic thar
this invention of Ignace Loyola, its espousa
Of mOnarchism as means of crushing re
publicanism and Protestantism, and stamp

through partnership with European despots
