Excerpt from The Question of the Hour: The Bible and the School Fund
This matter is no secret. It is open to all our citizens,-to all the world. The Papacy, that is growing weak in Europe, seeks renewed strength on our soil. And it boasts Of its future triumphs here. Said a Romish priest, when commenting upon the losses of the church in Italy, We can afford to let the rags of Italy go into the hands of Garibaldi, when we are taking possession Of the United States. An Italian paper says, The Roman Court expects to be able to control the American Republic. At a meeting of Roman Catholics, held in New York last year, and representing all parts Of the country, one of the speakers, exulting over what had been gained by them through special appropriations from the New York legislature, said, This is the little finger, and we must per severe till we get the whole hand. That hand.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book mounts a spirited defense of the Bible's role in American society, particularly in public education. The author makes a compelling case that the Bible is not only a valuable resource for moral and ethical instruction but also a foundational document of American history and culture. While acknowledging that state and church should remain separate, the author contends that the Bible is essential for maintaining the nation's civic virtues and religious freedoms. Drawing on historical examples and contemporary arguments, the author builds a powerful argument for keeping the Bible in schools and other public institutions. This book is a timely and provocative work that will resonate with anyone concerned about the role of religion in American life and the future of the nation's public education system.
