Excerpt from Catholic and Protestant Countries Compared: In Civilization, Popular Happiness, General Intelligence and Morality HE chief object of this book is to so far arouse the interest of its readers as to lead them to ex amine into the truth or falsehood of the grave popu lar accusations laid against the Catholic Church and her priesthood and people; and also to induce them to test'the value of the evidence offered in support of the boastful claims one so often hears made for the alleged superior intellectual character and moral influence of Protestantism and modern Secularism.
