“The enthusiasm for false gods cannot be drowned by an indifference to the true God. No secularized, non-religious theory of political freedom is strong enough to overcome them. A people who lack the strength of an ultimate conviction, cannot overcome their faith or their false absolute. The effective answer to a false religion is not indifference to all religion, but the practice of a true religion. If they have politics into a false religion, we shall have to see that religion has something to say about politics.” Archbishop Fulton Sheen (Philosophies at War)
