...blasphemous one man's opinion. There would certainly be an uproar if non-Catholics protested to Bishop Sheen's being on TV just because he reaches into the homes of thousands of Protestants.

...gives one cent of economic aid to King Saud, because his profits are being cut by the Suez crisis, every American taxpayer ought to boycott the Internal Revenue Service. The injustice of this non-Christian King in all his splendor coming to this Christian country and asking us poor, hard-working American taxpayers for economic aid makes my blood boil!

...split up this "everything" into 14 categories-part one deals with faith and knowledge, part six (13 volumes) treats the Bible, part nine (19 volumes) handles "Problems of the World and the Church," such as Communism, psychiatry, the state. A category is devoted to other Christian religions and one non-Christian religion.
