"Satan has entered the sanctuary, and assisted by people in power who call themselves Catholic has filled it with abominations. From within the sanctuary itself he wages war against us, an atrocious war, the most dangerous war the Church has ever seen... Because it is to his advantage to fight us from within our fortifications, he wears the Catholic uniform and bears the Catholic name".
Beato Francisco Palau y Quer O.C.D.(1811-1872) Blessed Francisco Palau y Quer, O.C.D.: A Prophet from Yesterday, For Today, For Tomorrow, For the End Times Francisco Palau y Quer, O.C.D.: A Prophet from Yesterday, For Today, For Tomorrow, For the End Times Chapter 1 - Sacred Orator, Apostle to the Working Class, Man of Thought and Action Under the Tempest Francisco Palau y Quer was born December 29, 1811, under the sign of the crises that scourge our world today. His parents were small landowners on the outskirts of Aytona, a village in the prosperous region of Catalonia, Spain. The family home was imbued with piety and age-old customs developed over generations of faith and work in a milieu brimming with genuine popular culture. Francisco's birthplace was in occupied territory however. Napoleon had invaded Spain and was trying to implement by force the false ideals of the French Revolution.

This is very educational and inspiring - filled with insights about what is happening around the world today. I had to download it as a pdf so I could work my way through all 167 pages. Thank you Denis Efimov for posting it!

Another thought on this. The devil has had an open door into the churches through Catholic Charities, who welcome him and the great sums of money he brings to them. This gives him direct access to influence the members of the parishes. When I was a novus ordo Catholic, I took a social justice class taught by our local Catholic Charities staff. Now I look back on that and see the fulfillment of their goals for population reduction, massive migration, communism - all under the guise of eliminating world poverty.
I agree with you that this is one of the doors through which the devil entered. But there were many other doors. When Blessed Francisco Palau wrote this, "Catholic liberalism", condemned forty times by Blessed Pius IX, was widespread. Modernism followed, then the "new theology", then the Second Vatican Council, and now we see the bottom of hell in the Vatican.
