Catholicism is like an absolute monarchy

Catholicism is like an absolute monarchy;

a: Catholicism ~

b: an absolute monarchy

What: "If Catholicism predisposes the faithful to obedience, it certainly does not prepare them for inequality; but the contrary may be said of Protestantism, which generally tends to make men independent more than to render them equal. Catholicism is like an absolute monarchy; if the sovereign be removed, all the other classes of society are more equal than in republics."
