Excerpt from Marriage and Parenthood, the Catholic IdealThat there is something wrong is admitted on all hands, as is proved by the attempts to mend matters. The Divorce Commission at present sit ting in London is an evidence Of such unrest. The formation Of the Eugenics Education Society is another. In these movements, however, the Cath olic student detects a lack Of the knowledge Of foundation principles. Most Of the remedies pro posed are a tinkering with the symptom rather than a treatment of the root cause.Here and there, however, the value of the Cath olic ideal asserts itself. Thus, for instance, in the evidence before the Divorce Commission, Sir John Bigham, then President Of the Divorce Court, said: My experience shows me that members Of the Roman Catholic Church seldom come to our court, and I attribute that fact to the great in¿uence Of their priesthood, and to the respect which is inculcated amongst Roman Catholics for the marriage vow.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
