RELIGION vs. POLITICS Politics has taken the place of religion as the dominant topic of thought and conversation in the world today, the Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen explained in his 16th annual lecture on the Loyola Forum. Speaking to a crowd of over 2000 persons in the Field- house the night after graduation, Bishop Sheen went on to say that most people fail to realize the tremendously beneficial role religion can play in international politics. He said that just as Christ sent out apostles trained in holiness, to convert the Roman Empire, so must we, as Catholics, help spread our faith in a world stumbling under the burden of conflicting political ideologies. The main obstacles which religion can help mankind overcome are colonialism, poverty and materialism. Bishop Sheen said. A face not easily forgotten. The Most Rev. Fulton J. Sheen An audience of over 2000 persons, several of whom have at- tended all of the bishop ' s lectures on the Forum since the first, September 25, 1944, came to hear this year ' s talk.
