"The spirit of anti-Christ dominates the age in which we live. It threatens this great nation with the crisis of the centuries. If there is not a reaction in the near future, it will culminate in such a social upheaval as the world has never seen. The voices of its millions of victims are calling to Heaven, as the blood of the murdered Abel cried from the ground for Divine vengeance upon Cain." (J. B. Hawthorne, 1837-1910)
