Not referring to this image in particular, but this anti-Roman Catholic magazine of the early 1900s was so over-the-top virulent as to seem genuinely evil in itself, ironically giving credence to the tenets of Catholicism that were meant to be lampooned. Also, it's fascinating to see that priests were depicted as womanizers and alcoholics, not as any of the things they're accused of today, which shows up how political power struggles are crafted according to the mores of their time. In a few decades from today, priests will be subjected to yet a different set of accusations, whatever seems most controversial then. And of course these sorts of heated sarcasms are never actually about anything philsophical, but rather greed for money and control to change hands. There's an age-old game, alright, but religion isn't even in the ballpark.
From La Colotte, 1908.
