Modern Inquisition, Lost Childhood is a tragic story, told by the authoress with deep indignation, but in a compassionate manner. This petite authoress, five feet tall and weighs 120 pounds, using only the Bible and common decency upon which to make her stand, appears ten feet tall and fearless in her approach to big government, the Catholic Church and God. The later she ardently believes to be on her side. Her adventures reveal a stamina and perseverance that would do credit to a green beret or legionnaire in battle. Her belief in God and the Bible would also do credit to any saint.Her's is a real story of the poor uneducated masses during the bloody Spanish Civil War and the years that followed. During that time, hundreds of thousands of innocent people died, their only crime being that they were on the wrong side of the political (and often religion) fence.The authoress brings many valid questions to light concerning the "Marriage" of the Franco Regine and the Catholic Church. History supports her position that both parties the Franco Regime and the Catholic Church. History supports her position that both parties initially leaned toward the Germans and Axis power at the outbreak of World War II. This was perhaps understanding for the self-preservation of a country, but unforgivable for a world-wide church which was and is supposed to stand tall against all tyranny and ungodliness.The authoresss also points out the continued alliances today of the Catholic Church and several governments, particularly in many poverties stricken third-world countries. The Catholic Church should respond to the authoress well researched and documented episodes of the church's continual deviation from the Bible, under the guise of "Tradition and Infallibility" The book is also a must for reading by the church hierarchy. It clearly provides grass roots reasons as to why the Catholic Church is on the decline worldwide, while smaller religions, that just follow the Bible, and the teaching of God, continue to grow, and. while the book is filled with a continuum of poverty, starvation, social injustice and deaths of love ones, the authoress manages to inject several moments of real humor and compassion.
