Crimes of Preachers in the United States and Canada

So long as imagination creates a god to rule the destinies of men; so long as ignorance can be made to believe that the preacher or priest is in some way a go-between, or agent, between men and the powers in the cloudsthat he is a sky-pilot, directly commissioned by deity to attend to Gods affairs on earth, and that the priests person and office are sacredjust so long will there be possible such a profession as that of the modern priesthood. And if these preachers as a whole are just as criminal as any other class; if they are immoral without the excuse of want or ignorancewithout reason other than because of their often indolent lives and the opportunities afforded them by the nature of their callingthen their followers cannot learn that fact too soon. The first edition of this book was printed in 1881, since which time many thousands of copies have been scattered throughout the country; but in no case to our knowledge has anyone successfully denied the facts alleged against any man of God figuring in these pages. Its substantial accuracy is therefore assured. The only charge that can be maintained against it is its incompleteness. The publishers do not claim to have discovered more than a small percentage of clerical villainy. The churches endeavor to and do hide a great deal of the immorality of their ministers. The preachers, who govern the ecclesiastical tribunals, [40]have a fellow feeling for one another. As a general thing, it is only when the clergy are brought before the secular courts that the public can learn the full facts. Comparatively few Catholic priests figure in this record, for the reason that that church is a close corporation which by political influence and by control of its members tongues can conceal the crimes of its leaders. In all large cities of the country the Catholic church has a large and dangerous political influence, and its priests have every chance to go free of retribution for their vices and crimes. The judges are Catholics, or owe their positions to Catholic power; the court officers are Catholics; the policemen are Catholics. They all shield the fathers and withhold their names from publication. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
