Publisher Marketing: "Many persons cannot understand how it happens, or whence it comes, that so many should return to the Catholic Church in spite of objections and difficulties. It is very simple: it is be Catholics is the Truth. It is the true religion of mankind." If this is so, why do so many refuse to believe the truth? Among the problems is licentiousness of our day and its materialism. Also the rejection of all authority and refusal of obedience. However, the truth cannot be refuted. Laforet, shows the errors of many infamous people, such as Abelard, Nichoals de Cusa, Erasmus, Plato, Voltaire, Giodano Bruno, Renan, Hegel and Celsus. This is an excellent resource for anyone who wants to understand why people do not believe. St. Alphonsus writes: "a single bad book will be sufficient to cause the destruction of a monastery." Pope Pius XII wrote in 1947 at the beatification of Blessed Maria Goretti: "There rises to Our lips the cry of the Saviour: 'Woe to the world because of scandals!' (Matthew 18:7). Woe to those who consciously and deliberately spread corruption-in novels, newspapers, magazines, theaters, films, in a world of immodesty!"
