Now consider who we are. America was founded upon principles related to step one. Step one is instrinsic to the principles. The second step, we own that ballpark.
So how did we seek to combat step three? With steps one and two, of course: by making the world safe for what? For our American ideals.
Then take a very careful look at our ideals, and where the Saint says they lead us. We combat error with error.
So it seems that in identifying the error as Atheistic Communism of Russia, something's lacking for a complete view. The errors must be something deeper than just that.
Just some random ramblings in the middle of the night. Any thoughts?
I would speculate that the "error" that we are dealing with is the common error between the East and the West. Both Communism and the Capitalist system are rooted in one thing, "Materialism."
They both deny morality in one way or another. The Communist denies individual morality, the Capitalist collective morality.
The same principle that St. Pius X wrote about: the conservative force and the progressive force is at work, and not only on the individual and national level. That tension exists among the nation states and the superpowers. America is currently operating as the "Progressive force" and China and the Middle East are "Conservative Forces".
There will be an intersection of these forces in the future and it will probably result in wars and calamities before consolidating into one force of liberalism. Just a guess on my part, but that will be when the Anti-Christ shows up.
The whole thing will have been orchestrated by that evil angelic intelligence and his willing and unwilling dupes will have handed millions over to him.
