Top Highlights
“As soon as I found myself, I found myself a Catholic. Loving hearts and hands had made me one; but previous examination, conviction, personal faith had not. The indestructible sense of individual accountability was mine.” (Page 57)
“The moment the magistrate prescribes or enforces religion, that moment the spirit of the religion of Christ is disregarded.” (Page 68)
“ The priests, and the priests alone, are the divinely authorized agents by which the forgiveness of sin is secured.” (Page 61)
“Her voice is the voice of God. Dissent from her views is the deadliest sin.” (Page 69)
“‘I am the custodian and the interpreter of this revelation. In compassion to the weakness of understandings, darkened by ignorance and sin, the right to read and interpret the word of God has not been given to men; but only to official organs of the church.’” (Page 65)
