Writings of Frank Duff

"The articles by Bro. Frank Duff are, without the slightest doubt, together the mightiest written contribution ever made as a help to pastoral work, whether of priests or laity. They penetrate with a depth of insight, which can come only from a special charism of the Holy Spirit, to the very heart of the nature of the apostolate and its practical accomplishments. One can say of these splendid essays what one can say with truth of the documents of the Second Vatican Council that if they were to be fully implemented a new golden age would dawn for the Church all over the world."

V. Rev. Francis J. Ripley.

EVANGELISATION

...Few nobler sentences than those of Lord Macaulay have been spoken on that aspect. They are all the more remarkable in as much as he disliked the Church that he was praising. Since then well over a hundred years of history full of convulsions of every kind have flowed by and those have only served to reinforce his argument. He says "Nor do we see any sign which indicates that the term of her long dominion is approaching. She saw the commencement of all the governments and of all the ecclesiastical establishments that now exist in the world; and we feel no assurance that she is not destined to see the end of them all. She was great and respected before the Saxon had set foot in Britain, before the Frank had passed the Rhine, when Grecian eloquence still flourished at Antioch, when idols were still worshipped in the Temple of Mecca. And she may still exist in undiminished vigour when some traveller from New Zealand shall, in the midst of a great solitude take his stand on a broken arch of London Bridge to sketch the ruins of St. Pauls" ...

Japan and China

Japan, a traditional enemy of Christianity, found itself in the 1930's threatened by a landslide towards materialism. It set up a Royal Commission with the mandate of saving the country from that fate. After many years of devoted investigation, the Commission reported:

First:

That the fear was a fact; that soon an alien and distasteful spirit would possess the land.

Second:

That the only force which could resist materialism was religion, but that the native religions did not have sufficient substance so that efforts to revive them would be labour lost.

Third:

They had analysed and seen at work every recognised form of religion in the world; and they had finally concluded that of all forms Catholicism had the greatest influence over the mind of man, and that it was on the whole a beneficial influence.

Fourth:

It recommended that Catholicism be imposed by law on the people of Japan. This surprising report was adopted by the Government. ...
