SynopsisThe author provides a provocative look at the role of Roman Catholicism in American history, especially the part played by the Jesuits in promoting the rebellion against England in 1776. Saussy, a Grammy-nominated songwriter and author (Miracle on Main Street), makes a case here that will strike most readers: "The papacy really does run United States foreign policy, and always has." To prove that, for example, the pope controls Washington, Saussy offers evidence such as the number of Catholic senators and other high government officials or that "the land known today as the District of Columbia bore the name 'Rome' in 1663 property records." Further, he argues that the Jesuits have imbued western culture with a purely Catholic political theory the theory underlying the American Revolution, which in turn was brought about by a Jesuit priest, Lorenzo Ricci, as part of a plan to make America safe for Roman Catholics. Catholics were oppressed in colonial times, Saussy notes, but Catholic immigrants flooded into the U.S. from Europe in the decades following the Revolution.
