At the outset, Dr. Droleskey claims that "a large plurality of Catholics today have no understanding of the relationship between their faith and public policy. The most classic political example of the abandonment of moral absolutes in favor of relativism is the Catholic who votes for the pro-abortion politician-the Catholic vote that put Clinton in the White House. A lived Catholicism is not supposed to seek compromise with the world but to transform it into the social reign of Christ the King; the state should be subordinate to the Divine and natural laws."
However, for reasons Dr. Droleskey illustrates so well, American Catholics, having bought into a pagan culture, have replaced God with government and brought about their own severely compromised faith. By educating Catholics as to the whys and wherefores, Dr. Droleskey has provided an invaluable service. Every thinking Catholic should read this book before each and every election!
