Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rambler, Vol. 7: A Catholic Journal and Review of Home and Foreign Literature, Politics, Science, Music, and the Fine Arts Surely the conversion of England must be nearer than we have been accustomed to think. If it is not so, how can we account for the storm of wrath with which the mind of the Protestant public has been shaken by the re-Christianising of England? The raging terror which has agitated so large a portion of the middle and upper classes of English society is more than a mere periodical panic. It is something different from those popular agitations which have been so frequent in the history of this country. It cannot be attributed solely to the stimulus of newspaper articles, or to the influence of the Anglican clergy, or to a regard for the spiritual supremacy of the Queen, or to a sense of affronted nationalism, or to a stupid confounding of the temporal with the spiritual rights of the secular power, or to the old vulgar dread of Popery and persecution, or to the commanding tone of the official language employed by his Holiness and by Cardinal Wiseman in their published documents, or to all these supposed causes united. There is something more than these, more mysterious, more awful, and more significant, hidden from the bodily hearing alike of Catholics and Protestants, but manifest to the ear of faith. That which seems to so many to be the noble shout of offended British patriotism, is no more than the passionate cry of the spirit of darkness as he hears the Holy Name pronounced by the ambassadors of Him who rules alike in heaven, in earth, and in hell, over that mighty demoniac of three centuries old, the Established Protestantism of England. The Established Church, be it never forgotten, is the great opponent of Jesus Christ in this island. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
