Archbishop Fulton Sheen had America pegged in the 1940’s:

“America is not in danger from the outside, but it is in grave danger from the inside.”

[And yet, we Americans are perpetually propagandized into fear of foreign nations.]

“The internal danger can become the source of external danger. Invasion was a possibility from the time Roman morals began to decline…”

[Like the Romans, our morals went into the bottom of the gutter. At the same exact time, America was invaded. But our invasion was facilitated from within! Our own government opened the borders to allow it!]

“There is no reason to believe that the laws of history should operate in a different way as regards America.”

[They did not. And unless we shut down the empire, and trying to micromanage the world, we’re just buying time…and America will be just another footnote, like the Romans.]
