Priests and people in Ireland Michael J F McCarthy 9781177638692 Books

The great Scots-Irish Presbyterian preacher and Ulster-man Ian Paisley recommended this book in one of his sermons. A Roman catholic wrote this book in 1902. I read the PDF version available on line for free.

It would not be in the best interests of a Romanist to criticize his own church. With great courage, McCarthy just let it rip. McCarthy wrote as a man who loved his country but hated the heavy hand of popery. Ironically, this fact was important in the Reformation. His main complaint was with the popish clerics both men and women. He attributed the backwardness of Ireland to their heavy hand in the pockets of the people. He called this priestcraft.

Not one aspect of popery was spared. He inveighed against the cultural, sacerdotal, economic, educational and religious aspects. He wrote pages and pages listing the legacies left by superstitious people for masses to pray people out of purgatory. He noted it would be better for an Irish catholic to leave his money to a stranger, a Scotsman or an Englishman, for they would make better use of it.

On catholic education McCarthy noted: " In Belfast the people who allow their children s minds to be crippled by the priest are in a minority; and they are, as I have shown, dwindling in relative civic importance. In Cork those whose mental development has been thwarted by the priest are in the vast majority, but they are decaying no less than the Belfast minority. The universal cause operates impartially north, south, east, and west, and all over the world." "The Roman Catholic priest has been forcibly put outside the school door in every land that desires its people to be happy and contented. For when the priest is in the school, as he is in Ireland, education and mind-development are not the objects for which the school is maintained ; but the inculcation of a religion which means the prevention of mind-growth, and the glorification of an idle, ignorant priesthood."

On sacerdotalism he testified: "That is the achievement of which Cork can boast for its labours during the latter half of the nineteenth century; and, equipped with which, it starts upon the twentieth century education without knowledge, religiosity without Christianity, and a flourishing trade in paupers, derelicts, and invalids."

On the false gospel of Romanism: "It is the same gospel as the pagan priests preached
many centuries before the Papacy founded by a decree of the debauched Emperor Phocas, and not by Christ brought its priests upon the stage of the world. It is the gospel which has been rejected by all civilisation and by the better half of white humanity. It explains why the social system in Roman Catholic Ireland, resting upon a foundation of such blasphemous fallacies, is a failure and a fraud. It explains why Catholic Ireland is rotting like a diseased limb in the otherwise sound body-politic of the United Kingdom. It explains why every country which professes this creed is in a condition of stagnation. It explains why the world owes whatever of comfort, progress, and enlightenment it has achieved, to the men and nations who have discarded the gospel of Father Gildea."

McCarthy does not spare his praise for Protestants and Protestantism. "Protestantism in Ireland, as in all North Europe and North America, enjoys what it possesses by sheer dint of industry, ability, and good living. Those qualities are the dominant note of Protestantism everywhere." "And to that greatest of lands, that product of a pinch of Puritanic seed wafted across the Atlantic in the Mayflower, and now extending from ocean to ocean, until it embraces every clime and is hospitable to every race, how literally may the parable, enunciated long ago in His voice, be applied to-day ! The United States of America ` is like to a grain of mustard seed' which God took and sowed in His field. And the seed was the God-fearing, truth -loving, falsehood -hating spirit of the Puritan emigrants. And the field was the land of the Mississippi, the Father of Waters. The seed was indeed `the least of all seeds' But, now, when it is grown, it is ` the greatest among herbs.' And it has become a tree, `so that the birds of the air' all the peoples of the earth, `come and lodge in the branches.'"

The cause of the backwardness of Ireland according to McCarthy: "Upon the rich priests, with their sham crosses, and upon them alone, therefore, rests all responsibility for the condition of the Irish Roman Catholic poor, whose helpless and contentious misery in the midst of peace and plenty is discussed and wondered at all over the world."

This is a devastating critique of a perverted counterfeit Christianity, which has led and still leads to the misery of millions and murder of hundreds of thousands. The intellectually honest Roman Catholic should be embarrassed by McCarthy's testimony.
