A CCORDING to the American
"A concept, religious organiza-
tions have no place in the poll
tics OF a country.
In fact. this country presents
the phenomenon Of the complete
seculariZation of education -
condition unknown in many
countries of Europe.
Even more. American clergy
men often support left wing
movements allied 10 the Com
munists, which would be i'm
possible in most European
countries.
Therefore, TO VI n d ers tand
what is happening in Europe, it
is necessary 10 try 10 witness
the spectacle sufficiently from
the European standpoint to
make il comprehensive.
To many Europeans. the
Roman Catholic religion involves
not so much church-going as a
way Of life
Let me put il this way: Men
may. in some countries. be
atheists or agnostics or even
only anti-clericals against the
priests controlling the church,
but they are. by civilization,
Catholics
Their roots are so deeply i'm
bedded in the Catholic doctrine
of the family. for instance, that
no matter what they think, they
act, they live by its philosophy.

" countries. the mass of the

ing, the insistence upon the

the Sacraments is the difference
between heaven and hell. And
they do not want hell hereafter

because many principal Catholic
areas in Europe have now
passed into anti-Cstholic hands.

If Russia deprives these 100.-
