Excerpt from The Question Solved: An Answer to Rev. Of Clark's "Question of the Hour," and His Other Anti-Catholic Problems In submitting this little volume to the kind consideration of the citizens of Albany, the simple object of the writer is to take issue with many of our Protestant ministers, particularly Dr. Clark, of the Dutch Reformed Church, alias "two-steepled" church, alias First Reformed Church, who has lately been moving the heavens and the earth against the Catholics and their principles. This self-constituted minister of the gospel of peace, if he is sincere in what he utters, is one of the most bare-faced perverters of God's truth, that it has been our misfortune to hear in a long time.

Seller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the common misunderstandings Protestant ministers and public speakers have about the beliefs and practices of the Catholic Church. The author argues the ministers use false accusations and misinterpretations to propagate fear and prejudice. By focusing on Dr. Clark's pulpit claims, the author uses his own words to show how he falsifies motives, perverts history, and scatters seeds of hate and strife. The author counters his arguments by providing historical examples of the Catholic Church's commitment to social justice, education, artistic beauty, and fostering moral virtue. He also answers charges of Catholic intolerance while contrasting Protestant persecution of Catholics. This book aims to inform the general public of the positive role the Catholic Church has played and continues to play in shaping Western civilization, promoting social harmony, and safeguarding spiritual values.
