bow at the feet of her creed.
Again she declares in her "Canonistic Laws:" "_That the state has not
the right to assist the inmates of monasteries and convents to
abandon them_."
Again you will see that Catholicism desires to usurp the rights of
the courts and establish prisons of their own without a semblance of
law.
Once more this "Canonistic Law" thunders forth her monarchial law as
follows: "_The Roman Catholic church has the right to require the
state not to leave every man free to profess his own religion_."
Again the reader will see that Roman Catholicism with her iron hand
demands this nation to force and compel every man, woman and child
that lives under that old red, white and blue flag, which was bought
by the blood of our forefathers, to humbly bow to this heathenish
creed.
The next, and one of the most damnable laws found among the
"Canonistic Laws" of Catholicism, is as follows: "_Roman Catholicism
has the right to exercise her power without permission or consent of
the state_."
Within this Romish law any one can easily discern her monarchial
designs, as she boldly and flagrantly declares that she has the right
to do as she sees fit, without even being molested or questioned by
the laws of this country.
Further on in the "Canon Laws" of Catholicism we find the following:
"_Roman Catholicism has the right to prevent the foundation of any
national church not subject to the direct authority of the Roman
pontiff_."
Thus the reader will see that the Protestant churches of America
exist only by and through the numerical power of Protestantism, but
should Romanism ever become powerful enough in this country she
would, within the twinkling of an eye, destroy or confiscate every
Protestant church now in existence.
Further along in this Romish "Canon Law" we find that she strikes at
the dearest institutions of our land, as follows: "_The Roman
Catholic church has the right to deprive the civil authorities of the
entire government of the public schools_."
The reader will see by this declaration that should Catholicism ever
come in control of the affairs of this government that our public
schools, which are the bulwarks of our American government, would
have their very foundations rooted up and scattered to the four winds
of the earth.
The most devilish and damnable law, in my estimation, that is to be
found upon the statute books of Catholicism is the following: "_Roman
Catholicism has the
