My main concern and prayer is for the Church to be ONE. The Church has been the one thing that has held back the hand of evil in our world in the manifestation of Communism. Our culture and Faith has been under attack for generations by the disciples of Marx.

The Italian marxist, Antonio Gramsci, understood that it was the Catholic Church (also all of Christianity, but he specified the Catholic Church) that was standing in the way of marxism taking hold in the hearts of men. He realized that to win the hearts of men, a cultural war had to be declared on Christianity. Communists shifted their focus on culture from economics. Political Correctness is the result of this.

To win back our culture and our nation the Church must be united so that even the gates of hell will not prevail against it.

yes, and this is what a leading communist general in 1920 thought
Mikhail Nikolaievich Tukhachevsky was incarcerated in the high-security fortress of Ingolstadt. There he befriended a number of French fellow prisoners, whome he drove to the depths of melancholy by playing mournful pieces on his violin and shocked with his provocative pronouncements: after a lengthy discussion on literature, he would declare that all books should be burnt so that the soul of man could be truly liberated. One day a French captain found him building a grotesque cardbord monster holding a bomb, which he explained was the God of War and Destruction, Pierun. 'We will enter into the state of Chaos, and will only emerge from it with the total ruin of civilisation,' Tukhachevsky solemnly told the astonished Frenchman as he prostrated himself before it.

His nihilism had an unpleasant tinge to it. 'The Jews brought us Christianity, and that is reason enough to loathe them,' he lectured on another occasion. 'And anyway, they belong to a low race."
communists hate Christianity, they hate The Church. Communism fell when Pope John Paul II came and told the Poles in the center of Warsaw that Poland lives for Christ, is defined by Christ. Communism crumbled after that -- first the Solidarity got control in 1985, then the berlin wall collapsed in 1989, then the USSR in 1991. Communists hate the Church for this
