Alec Satin - The Lutheran Librarian:
Compare the following
to what we are witnessing today.
Like Fascism and
Nazism, Roman Catholicism will use science when, but only
when, it suits its purposes. Just as its ‘leadership
principle’ was the groundwork of Nazism — as Goering
testified at the Nuremberg trials last March 14 —
so too were its censorship and Inquisition methods, its book
burnings and other means for the repression of individual
thought and scientific progress. Hitler himself, in Mein
Kampf, laid down the principle that, “The greatness
of every powerful organization… is rooted in the religious
fanaticism with which it intolerably enforces itself against
everything else, fanatically convinced of its own right.”
Further on in the same book (p. 882) he says:
McCain defended Objective Justification by quoting the LCMS professor who penned this drivel and later joined Rome, Edward Preuss. |
“Here too one can learn from the Catholic church. Although its structure of doctrines in many instances collides, quite unnecessarily, with exact science and research, yet it is unwilling to sacrifice even one little syllable of its dogmas. It has rightly recognized that its irresistibility does not lie in a more or less great adjustment to the scientific results of the moment… but rather in a strict adherence to dogmas… Today therefore the Catholic church stands firmer than ever.”

Catholic Church and Science” by JJ Murphy. Emphasis added.
