Romanism Incompatible With Republican Institution (1845)

By Civis

Book Overview

""Romanism Incompatible With Republican Institution"" is a book written by Civis in 1845. The book argues that Roman Catholicism is incompatible with the principles of republicanism and democracy. Civis asserts that the hierarchical structure of the Catholic Church, the authority of the Pope, and the loyalty of Catholics to the Church over the state make it impossible for Catholics to fully participate in a democratic society. The book also criticizes the Catholic Church's history of persecution and suppression of dissenting voices. Civis argues that the Catholic Church's influence in politics and society poses a threat to the freedom and autonomy of the United States. The book was written during a time of anti-Catholic sentiment in the United States, and it reflects the fears and prejudices of many Protestant Americans at the time. However, it is also a valuable historical document that sheds light on the religious and political tensions of the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
