Der Kommunismus und das Gewissen der westlichen Welt

It was not for age that he saw the main problem as clearly as we do; for two things impel us to work for the peace and well-being of the world: the gospel in its fullness and Soviet communism. The Gospel teaches us that right living brings happiness; Communism that doing bad things leads to misery. (Excerpts from advertisement and foreword)

About the Author: Fulton John Sheen, (1895-1979) was a Roman Catholic bishop in the United States and one of the most influential figures in the American Christian media of the 20th century. He was a very prolific author of books, but also early used the new media of radio and television to preach. From 1930, he ran a weekly radio program called the Catholic Hour. From 1951 he also worked on television and thus became one of the first "television preachers". He hosted the weekly Life Is Worth Living for the DuMont Television Network and later for ABC, in which he gave half-hour lectures on life or faith. In 1952, he won an Emmy Award for it. From 1961 to 1968, he directed a similar program called The Fulton Sheen Program.
