Sheen recognized that modern atheism was a new type of Messianism threatening to beguile and conquer humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSheen stressed the use of reason as the unparalleled countermeasure to deceptive communism. The first three books contained in this anthology are a collection of Sheen's classic \u003ci\u003eCatholic Hour\u003c\/i\u003e radio addresses that were heard by millions of listeners in the 1930s and 1940s. Here, in a single compilation, are Bishop Sheen's most clearly delineated investigations into the underlying causes of communism -- every bit as relevant today as when he spoke them -- along with an entirely sound and hopeful program for defeating it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the fourth book of this anthology, \u003ci\u003eThe Philosophies of War\u003c\/i\u003e, Sheen addresses the confusion felt by most people who were dissatisfied with the ephemeral and superficial commentaries about World War II. Like a master surgeon, Sheen applies the sharp scalpel of his crystal-clear logic to lay open the sources of the world's infection. The fifth book, \u003ci\u003eSeven Pillars of Peace\u003c\/i\u003e, presents the principles upon which Sheen believes the foundations for a just and lasting peace must be built.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy making these five powerful resources your own, you'll have in one volume the means to \u003ci\u003ethrive\u003c\/i\u003e spiritually in our current seemingly desperate time. Drawing from biblical, cultural, and contemporary examples, Sheen will show you: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe spirit of the Antichrist, immoral leaders, education, and societies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow personal sin is sickening our culture -- and the cure for this \"pandemic\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe proper understanding of and instinctive human need for authentic freedom, justice, and love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe need to unite for personal rights, including freedom of conscience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy it is crucial to be intolerant of evil and embrace a divine solution\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow America must choose to repent in order to overcome our present crisis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost notably, Archbishop Sheen proclaims the hope of Christ's Cross and the immeasurable power of His resurrected love. He exhorts us to carry our individual fragments of the beam. It is always darkest before the dawn, Sheen teaches. Times of discouragement are moments when great spiritual transformations can occur. If we return to God and do penance, we will attain interior peace. The future of America's freedom and restoration as a constitutional republic depend on \u003ci\u003eour decision \u003c\/i\u003e--\u003ci\u003e now\u003c\/i\u003e -- to obediently trust in God.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eArchbishop Fulton J. Sheen (1895-1979) spent almost forty years evangelizing Catholics and non-Catholics alike through his voluminous writings and his thousands of nationwide radio and television broadcasts.
