"Thirty Years In Hell" Or, "From Darkness to Light"
Fresenborg, Bernard
Anti-Catholicism; Catholic Church -- Controversial literature; Catholic ex-priests
An institution which is allowed to flourish in this country, should
be an institution whose teachers are in harmony with the fundamental
principles of godliness, morality and liberty, and unless they are,
the teachers at once become traitors.
Now, is not this common sense logic and every-day philosophy?
We want to investigate and see if this logic and philosophy is not
reasonable and founded upon common sense, and if we find that it is,
then any man or woman of intelligence must acknowledge that if the
teachings and the fundamental principles of a free country are
correct, then the doctrines of Catholicism are altogether wrong, and
the sooner the American people can arrive at this conclusion, the
better it will be for us, for if the teachings of our Protestant
forefathers are right, and the teachings of Rome are wrong, the
quicker we can eradicate and stamp out these popish doctrines, the
better it will be for our posterity.
If this country is a home for those who love liberty, then the
influence of the priesthood of America is detrimental to the
fundamental principles of America, as Catholicism does not teach
patriotism and loyalty of country, as the burden of her teachings is,
"Loyalty to the Pope," and the Pope of Rome, who is at the head of
the Catholic Church; is a despot pure and simple--yea, he is worse
than a despot, as he rules his followers by a superstitious belief,
which teaches that not only the body of Rome's followers is subject
to the Pope's every whim, but the soul as well is directly under the
control of this despotic sovereign.
A Roman Catholic form of government is more despotic than a monarchy
which is ruled by an absolute despot, as these monarchs who have
absolute sway in the affairs of the state only are satisfied with
this absolutism, but not so with Catholicism, as she haunts her
followers to the grave and then demands of their surviving relatives
that homage be paid her in order to keep their dead out of the
regions of despair.
