Everything the past due Victorians and Edwardians believed would bring human happiness continues to be accomplished: technology has made it therefore no one must work for a living, the cultural sciences ensure a smooth-running cultural purchase, and in the name of tolerance, religious beliefs have already been uprooted and removed except for an individual holdout: a generally discredited and quickly shrinking Catholic Chapel. Yet people are disappointed.What continues to be created is a sterile globe of crass about Lord from the World: A Novel materialism, a global without spiritual dimension, a global where people daily choose legalized euthanasia within the emptiness of lifetime. Out of this tradition of despair, right now there occurs a charismatic innovator: Julian Felsenburgh. Quickly the people are in Felsenburgh’s thrall and he becomes leader from the world. But in their eagerness for modify, have the citizens of the world embraced the Antichrist and hastened the end of days?Father Percy Franklin remains a bastion of stability, even as the Catholic Church disintegrates around him. Finally outlawed and powered underground, it really is just this small and shrinking Church that stands against the “Lord of the World.”
