Beschreibung
An incredibly prophetic book
“I advise you to read it. Reading it, you'll understand well what I mean by ideological colonization.” — Pope Francis
Written in 1907, Lord of the World, is a dystopian science fiction novel, accurately predicts a future world which includes legalized euthanasia, mass communication, rapid transport, air travel, weapons of mass destruction… Robert Hugh Benson describes a future ruled by the Antichrist who becomes ‘Lord of the World’, a nightmare where “creeping secularism and Godless humanism have triumphed over religion and traditional morality”. This book is shocking how prophetic it is, it's an apocalyptic vision of the so-called progress of modern man. This author reveals a lot of what we are experiencing today. This masterpiece is a must-read not only to Catholics, but also to anyone else who is worried about the direction that western civilization is going. It is time to think seriously about our eternity!
