This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roman Catholics in America Falsifying History and Poisoning the Minds of Protestant School Children This year is the 400th. since a venereally diseased Pope, whose dissipations had exhausted the Vatican treasury, sent out monkish peddlers into sundry parts of Europe to sell, at public outcry, the papal pardons for sin, known as "Indulgences." Originally, an Indulgence was a financial deal, by which the Roman Catholic violator of church rules could square himself with the ecclesiastical lords; just as the peasants, under the Feudal System, could pay money to the landlord and escape menial service, or military conscription. But as the Papal usurpation grew in power, it naturally grew also in greed. Each successful aggression encouraged the popes to attempt another; and so it was. that the Bishops of Rome finally became Gods-on-earth, in the eyes of devout, superstitious Catholics. It logically follows that, if we have a God on earth, this God can forgive sins. Inasmuch as the popes load, in the course of a thousand years, reached that monstrous height of self-assertion, they changed the original doctrine of Indulgence. What had formerly been nothing more than the remission of church penalties (similar to the remission of a fine by one of our courts) became a pardon for sin. This preposterous usurpation of God's power was carried to such extreme lengths, that the popes sold Indulgences which wiped out all crimes past, present, and future; and the price to be paid was set against each crime, in a regular scale, just as you would list the prices of a number of books, of horses, of goods in a store, or of saleable articles at a church fair.

Book Synopsis The American Catholic Experience by : Jay P. Dolan
Download or read book The American Catholic Experience written by Jay P. Dolan and published by Image. This book was released on 2011-09-07 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholicism has had a profound and lasting influence on the shape, the meaning, and the course of American history. Now, in the first book to reflect the new communal and social awakening which emerged from Vatican Council II, here is a vibrant and compelling history of the American Catholic experience—one that will surely become the standard volume for this decade, and decades to come. Spanning nearly five hundred years, the narrative eloquently describes the Catholic experience from the arrival of Columbus and the other European explorers to the present day. It sheds fascinating new light on the work of the first vanguard of missionaries, and on the religious struggles and tensions of the early settlers. We watch Catholicism as it spread across the New World, and see how it transformed—and was transformed by—the land and its people. We follow the evolution of the urban ethnic communities and learn about the vital contributions of the immigrant church to Catholicism. And finally, we share in the controversy of the modern church and the extraordinary changes in the Catholic consciousness as it comes to grips with such contemporary social and theological issues as war and peace and the arms race, materialism, birth control and abortion, social justice, civil rights, religious freedom, the ordination of women, and married clergy. The American Catholic Experience is not just the history of an institution, but a chronicle of the dreams and aspirations, the crises and faith, of a thriving, ever-evolving religious community. It provides a penetrating and deeply thoughtful look at an experience as diverse, as exciting, and as powerful as America itself.
Book Synopsis Catholics in the American Century by : R. Scott Appleby
Download or read book Catholics in the American Century written by R. Scott Appleby and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-15 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the twentieth century, Catholics, who make up a quarter of the population of the United States, made significant contributions to American culture, politics, and society. They built powerful political machines in Chicago, Boston, and New York; led influential labor unions; created the largest private school system in the nation; and established a vast network of hospitals, orphanages, and charitable organizations. Yet in both scholarly and popular works of history, the distinctive presence and agency of Catholics as Catholics is almost entirely absent. In this book, R. Scott Appleby and Kathleen Sprows Cummings bring together American historians of race, politics, social theory, labor, and gender to address this lacuna, detailing in cogent and wide-ranging essays how Catholics negotiated gender relations, raised children, thought about war and peace, navigated the workplace and the marketplace, and imagined their place in the national myth of origins and ends. A long overdue corrective, Catholics in the American Century restores Catholicism to its rightful place in the American story.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Roman Catholicism in the United States Without wishing to revive those religious prejudices and animosities which have been productive of so much harm in the past, I cannot help thinking that the time has come when we ought to turn our attention to Roman Catholicism, and, in the light of a candid examination, endeavor to estimate as intelligently as possible the consequences which are likely to result from its increasing power and influence in this country.

Book Synopsis Catholics in America by : Patrick W. Carey
Download or read book Catholics in America written by Patrick W. Carey and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-11-30 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Roman Catholics have a long and storied history in the United States. From colonial times to the present, this group has seen its share of ups and downs, and has recently come under heated and extensive scrutiny. There is, however, a richer and more interesting history to this important denomination, and Carey details it here. Beginning with an overview of the transplanting of this faith into the New World, the author then details the extensive involvement this community has had in civil and political affairs, social and cultural milieus, and family and everyday life. Focusing on the people and events that have shaped Roman Catholicism in the United States, this broad history introduces readers to a vital American community. Beginning with a narrative history of Catholics and Catholicism in America, Carey brings the discussion through to current times, addressing the recent problems in the Church, women's roles, and responses to terrorism and war. He then goes on to include brief biographical sketches of important figures in the Church, and offers a chronology of key events. The result is one of the most comprehensive histories of Catholics in America available.

Book Synopsis In Search of an American Catholicism by : Jay P. Dolan
Download or read book In Search of an American Catholicism written by Jay P. Dolan and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2003 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than two hundred years American Catholics have struggled to reconcile their national and religious values. In this incisive and accessible account, distinguished Catholic historian Jay P. Dolan explores the way American Catholicism has taken its distinctive shape and follows how Catholics have met the challenges they have faced as New World followers of an Old World religion. Dolan argues that the ideals of democracy, and American culture in general, have deeply shaped Catholicism in the United States as far back as 1789, when the nation's first bishop was elected by the clergy (and the pope accepted their choice). Dolan looks at the tension between democratic values and Catholic doctrine from the conservative reaction after the fall of Napoleon to the impact of the Second Vatican Council. Furthermore, he explores grassroots devotional life, the struggle against nativism, the impact and collision of different immigrant groups, and the disputed issue of gender. Today Dolan writes, the tensions remain, as we see signs of a resurgent traditionalism in the church in response to the liberalizing trend launched by John XXIII, and also a resistance to the conservatism of John Paul II. In this lucid account, the unfinished story of Catholicism in America emerges clearly and compellingly, illuminating the inner life of the church and of the nation.

Book Synopsis Roman Catholicism in America by : Chester Gillis
Download or read book Roman Catholicism in America written by Chester Gillis and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are American Catholics and what do they believe and practice? How has American Catholicism influenced and been influenced by American culture and society? This book examines the history of American Catholics from the colonial era to the present, with an emphasis on changes and challenges in the contemporary church. Chester Gillis chronicles America Catholics: where they have come from, how they have integrated into American society, and how the church has influenced their lives. He highlights key events and people, examines data on Catholics and their relationship to the church, and considers the church’s positions and actions on politics, education, and gender and sexuality in the context of its history and doctrines. This second edition of Roman Catholicism in America pays particular attention to the tumultuous past twenty years and points toward the future of the religion in the United States. It examines the unprecedented crisis of sexual abuse by priests—the legal, moral, financial, and institutional repercussions of which continue to this day—and the bishops’ role in it. Gillis also discusses the election of Pope Francis and the controversial role Catholic leadership has played in American politics.
Book Synopsis Catholicism and the Shaping of Nineteenth-Century America by : Jon Gjerde
Download or read book Catholicism and the Shaping of Nineteenth-Century America written by Jon Gjerde and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Offers a series of fresh perspectives on America's encounter with Catholicism in the nineteenth-century. While religious and immigration historians have construed this history in univocal terms, Jon Gjerde bridges sectarian divides by presenting Protestants and Catholics in conversation with each other. In so doing, Gjerde reveals the ways in which America's encounter with Catholicism was much more than a story about American nativism. Nineteenth-century religious debates raised questions about the fundamental underpinnings of the American state and society: the shape of the antebellum market economy, gender roles in the American family, and the place of slavery were only a few of the issues engaged by Protestants and Catholics in a lively and enduring dialectic. While the question of the place of Catholics in America was left unresolved, the very debates surrounding this question generated multiple conceptions of American pluralism and American national identity.
Book Synopsis Communion of Immigrants by : James T. Fisher
Download or read book Communion of Immigrants written by James T. Fisher and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-11-30 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Catholicism has grown from a suppressed and persecuted outsiders' religion in the American colonies to become the nation's single largest denomination. James Fisher surveys more than four centuries of Catholics' involvement in American history, starting his narrative with one of the first Spanish expeditions to Florida, in 1528. He follows the transformation of Catholicism into one of America's most culturally and ethnically diverse religions, including the English Catholics' early settlement in Maryland, the Spanish missions to the Native Americans, the Irish and German poor who came in search of work and farmland, the proliferation of Polish and Italian communities, and the growing influx of Catholics from Latin America. The book discusses Catholic involvement in politics and conflict, from New York's Tammany Hall to the Vietnam War and abortion. Fisher highlights the critical role of women in American Catholicism--from St. Elizabeth Seton and Dorothy Day to Mother Cabrini, the first American citizen to be canonized a saint--and describes the influence of prominent American Catholics such as Cardinal John J. O'Connor, 1930s radio personality Father Charles Coughlin, President John F. Kennedy, pacifists Daniel and Philip Berrigan, activist Cesar Chavez, and author Flannery O'Connor. For this new edition, Fisher has brought the story up to date, including the latest struggles within the American church leadership.

This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 700 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Popular History of the Catholic Church in the United States IT is seldom, indeed, that the American Catholic author of a strictly Catholic book, has the gratification of adding a few words to the fourth edition of his fist book within a few months after its first issue. Yet, scarcely six months have passed since the first copy of the present volume was given to the public. The earliest edition was so quickly disposed of, that I had but little time to make a hasty re vision, when another was called for. Soon a third edition was demanded, and, now, a fourth. I feel that I am deeply indebted to the kindness and generous appreciation of our Catholic public. To express fully my warm gratitude, I am at a loss for fitting terms. Were my volume a novel, or a romance, I would not be so astonished at its success; but it is a book of dates, facts, and figures, a book in which imagination had little room for play, a book, in fine, standing on the solid ground of truth. But, after all, perhaps, truth is stranger than fiction. Nor are my thanks less due to the American, Canadian, and British press, for the friendly expressions of welcome, the manly, courteous reception accorded to my first literary venture in the book-world. But I thank, above all, those learned and venerable Rulers of the Church whose valued, weighty, and beauti ful words of encouragement, I'can never forget.
