Preface

A UNIFYING idea underlies the rather miscellaneous contents of this book. That idea is that the greatest danger which threatens our modern world is the lack of morality, and that the only way to supply the defect is to learn and practise the morality taught by Jesus Christ and by his Church. On certain points of that teaching I have gone into considerable detail, which I hope will not be unacceptable to the reader. I also hope that I shall not be credited with what I do not hold. When I say Back to Morality, I do not mean Back to Medievalism, or Back to Feudalism. I mean what I say.
