Publisher's Synopsis
This work was published in Graz, Austria in 1933 by the Catholic Priest Gaston Ritter. It received the Nihil Obstat and the Imprimatur; nevertheless in our age it would be considered controversial even though the Church has stated that there is nothing therein against the Catholic Faith. Judaism and the Shades of the Antichrist is both a book about the Jews, and about the Catholic Church and Catholic peoples - and the conflict between them as Judea seeks to bring about their "New World Order". This book was written for a Catholic Austrian audience. Hitler had come to power in Germany on January 30, 1933, but Fr. Ritter does not concern himself with National Socialist, German, or other volkish movements. He is focused upon the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, their seeming coming fulfillment in Europe and violently so in Russia in 1917 - and upon Our Lord's words and prophecies primarily in Matt. 24, as well as prophecies of various Saints, concerning the End Times. It is also a call to action for Catholics, and Christians of all stripes, to stand with Christ and against the Antichrist programs seeking to destroy countries and peoples. In many ways it fits our own days, as our culture and religion are under constant attacks using the same tactics as in Austria and Germany in the 1930's in the current Culture War.
