Book Catholics of the British Empire and the War  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Catholics of the British Empire and the War Classic Reprint written by Burns and Oates Ltd and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catholics of the British Empire and the War This great progress of British Catholicism has taken place without alarming or antagonising any but an infinitesimal section of the British people. It was soon generally recognised that good citizenship is the first of Catholic social dogmas. One of the most striking features of recent English history has been the manner in which Catholics, inspired and fired by the freshness of their rejuvenated Faith and their newly won liberties, stepped spontaneously into the forefront of their country's battles. From top to bottom of the social scale Catholics have long given their best and have served their country in exalted and humble stations alike.

So, when the Great War broke out, it was not surprising that Catholics should have flocked to arms for the defence of the country they loved - and loved, not because it has admittedly treated them so generously and respected their devotion, but because it is their country and the instincts of patriotism are so deeply inrooted in all who bear the Catholic name. The patriotism of Catholics in all belligerent countries, friend and foe alike, has indeed been a phenomenon that has impressed the opinion of a world that has.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from To the Catholics of England IL. Th'en as to the probable qfimg' of'the plan adopted by the Committee, for conciliating the minds of: the Public The defamation of two hundred and fifty years, under which the Catholics have laboured, has raifed a prejudice againfl them, which is not yet eradicated.-the utmoit change in the fentiments of the Public, that the accumulated efforts of all the writers, and the compleat innocence (in this refpect at leaft} of\ the morals and manners of the Englifh Catholics have been able to produce, is, that, it is become a very general opinion among our adverfaries, that fome, (though but a few) ofthofe, who profefs the Catholic Reli gion, and are confequently in communion with the Sec of Rome, do not maintain the tenets in quef'tion; and that, however'erroneons fome of' the doctrines of the Catholic Church may-be, no Catholic fhould fuffer any civil punifhment for maintaining them, except fo far as they are hurtful to fociety, or-inimical' to Government.. E - Upon-the'fe admiflions of the adverfaries of the Catholic 'caufe, the Committee have thought it prudent to clofe. - They might conteit the pofition, that, few only of the body of Catholics reprobate the doctrines in - But waving allt'difpute u on that point, they rather chufe to'rry the canfo on their adverfaries own admiflions; - They therefore adopt t e form of an Oath, in which the Catholics renounce fuch of the doc trines imputed to them as are flip ofed to be morally or politically evil. Neither do they claim *an exemption from the enal laws or 'all the Body; they claim it for thofe only, who make the renunciation in queftion.' - To them the adverfaries of the Catholics (if they are confiflent with their own principles or even it ith their own' prejudices, ) muit'admit Toleration'ought to be extended - The operation therefore of the Bill is to leave thofe ideal numbers of Catholics who perfilt to hold the tenets in queltion, (mere hon-entities, we hope, ) to continue vit'tims' to the laws enaeted'againfi all Communicants with the See of Rome, indifcriminately, and to the animofities, which gave rife to them but at the fame time to make an opening, through which fuch of the Communicants with that See, as protefi againfl the doftrinescin queftion, (that is, we hope, the whole body of Englifh Catholics, ) may flip from under the operation of the laws in gueftion, unheeded and unobferved.

This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Few Remarks on the Social and Political Condition of British Catholics The active and vigorous mind of the British public is agitated, at this moment, to an extraordinary extent, by various questions of religious controversy asif worked upon by invisible agency, the members of the Church, and every community of professing Christians; and the advocates of each degree of ascetic or rational develop ment, appear to put forth all their strength and all their ability, each in the cause, (as he believes), of truth. In this common struggle for the advancement of the cause for which God delivered Himself, in human form, a living sacrifice the Holy Catholic Church finds herself in constant collision with those separated brethren of various creeds, who deny her exclusive possession of the Faith necessary for eternal salvation.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Condition of English Catholics Under Charles II At times, an interval of comparative calm, often due to political reasons, held in suspense the sword always unsheathed in readiness to strike the Papists. At other times a plot, real or pretended, served as a pretext for measures of the utmost severity and sent many innocent men to execution. Such was the dark drama which disgraced the reign of Charles II and of which the history is here related. Never perhaps was more clearly shown to what excesses of injustice and cruelty a nation may be driven by religious bigotry.
