Books, Arts & Manners: Paradise Regained

The Desolate City: Revolution in the Catholic Church, by Anne Roche Muggeridge (Harper & Row, 219 pp., $16.95)

‘This, therefore, is the confident state of the revolution now. Dissent has become orthodoxy. The revolution has become the legitimate government at all levels below the papacy. The empowering symbols of legitimacy are in the possession of the revolution. The hierarchical magisterium has been forced to-tolerate the working separation of faith from practice. The Pope is the leader of a rump Church only.”
