QUOTATION: The Age of Unbelief

Pope Pius XI
A day will come when the civilized world will deny its God, when the Church will doubt as Peter doubted. She will be tempted to believe that man has become God. In our churches, Christians will search in vain for the red lamp where God awaits them. Like Mary Magdalene, weeping before the empty tomb, they will ask, ‘Where have they taken Him?”

--Pope Pius XI

QUOTATION: Belief in God

Belief in God is the unshaken foundation of all social order and of all responsible action on earth.

--Pius XI, Caritate Christi Compulsi, 1932
