The instinctive Catholicism of our Founders would have prevented the cancerous growth of the state, our subsequent loss of liberties, the destruction of families, abortion on demand, the death of free markets, and the horrors of today's pervasive pagan culture. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eCatholic Republic\u003c\/i\u003e, Gordon recounts our nation's clandestine history of publicly repudiating, yet privately relying on, Catholic ideas about politics and nature. At this late hour in the life of the Church and the world, America still can be saved, claims Gordon, if only we soon return to the Catholic principles that are the indispensable foundation of all successful republics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Timothy Gordon\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1622828364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781622828364\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Crisis Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/04\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 1.00d","brand":"Timothy Gordon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048835969279,"sku":"9781622828364","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3806c57e-ffa8-4d26-a63c-10128686e5ad.jpg?v=1684998100","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/catholic-republic-timothy-gordon-9781622828364","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
