"The Church In Politics—Americans Beware!" by M. M. (Mangasar Mugurditch) Mangasarian is a thought-provoking lecture that explores the relationship between religious organizations and government in the United States, specifically focusing on the Catholic Church in the early 1900s. Mangasarian contends that a church rooted in religious doctrine is not a good match for a government that is not religious. He uses France as one example how a church’s loyalty to its own power can interfere with individual rights and the nation's goals, even when the church seems supportive of democratic ideas. Throughout the lecture, he cautions Americans to remain observant and be aware of the possible risks if any church gains too much influence over how the country is run. Mangasarian suggests that following a church's specific laws might come at the cost of human rights and our democratic system.
