Rating: Summary: The Dr. unambiguously proclaims the truth. Review: Here is a book that should be read by all men of good will, who seek to find a way to apply the principles which they hold dear to their participation in our political system. Dr. Droleskey uses his extensive knowledge of Catholic political and social teaching to expose the flaws in the system, both theoretical and practical; and to map out a strategy for Catholics who wish to use the system to combat the terrible social consequences of those flaws, and at the same time not allow their principles to be compromised through subservience to the flawed system itself. A must read!
Rating: Summary: Read This Book! Review: In this book, Dr. Droleskey, a renowned Catholic political scientist, brilliantly demonstrates the ways in which American principles contradict those of Catholicism. A must read for every Catholic who wishes to be informed!
