About this listen

The War of Anti-Christ with the Church and Christian Civilization is a thought-provoking book penned in 1885 by the Irish author George F. Dillon, DD. This pivotal work was later republished in 1950 by Fr. Denis Fahey under the title Grand Orient Freemasonry Unmasked as the Secret Power Behind Communism. The book argues that an atheistic Illuminism, facilitated by the structures of Grand Orient Freemasonry, has waged a relentless war against Christendom and the Catholic Church. This conflict is portrayed as being largely driven by radical liberal republican revolutions that exhibit anti-Catholic sentiments through atheism and religious indifferentism. Dillon meticulously examines revolutionary movements across France, Italy, Germany, and Ireland, delving into topics such as the Illuminati, Kabbalism, Jacobinism, the French Revolution, the Carbonari, and Fenianism. Notably, the Alta Vendita document gained significant attention in the English-speaking world after its translation for this book, contextualizing its historical implications. The book significantly influenced Catholic integralism in Ireland, Britain, and the United States, as well as shaping national conservative political thought. Fahey, who revived this work in the mid-20th century, established the Maria Duce political movement, which criticized Fenianism and promoted a vision of Irish National Catholicism under the social and spiritual guidance of Christ the King. The Britons Publishing Society, which reissued the book, hailed it as of world-wide importance.
