By Joseph Pronechen, EWTN News - “First of all, we are at the end of Christendom,” Arch. F. Sheen solemnly said.. in 1974. “Now not Christianity, not the Church. Remember what I am saying.”... Then he defined what he meant. “Christendom is economic, political, social life as inspired by Christian principles. That is ending — we’ve seen it die. Look at the symptoms: the breakup of the family, divorce, abortion, immorality, general dishonesty.”
