Author - Leslie Rumble, M.S.C., S.T.D.

Rev Leslie Rumble, MSC, STDLeslie Rumble, M.S.C., a convert to the Catholic Church, born 1892, was ordained in Sydney (1924) as a Missionary of the Sacred Heart, later gaining a doctorate in theology at the Angelicum University in Rome.

Returning to Australia, he taught theology at Sydney's Kensington Monastery, and in addition (1928) undertook a radio apostolate on Station 2SM which continued during the following forty years.

Four successive books of his "Radio Replies" appeared in Australia and U.S.A, between 1934 and 1954 with a final book published in 1972 prompted by the changes surrounding Vatican II.

He is the author also of over fifty comparative studies of different religions, published separately as booklets in Australia, U.S.A., and England; and of many articles in periodicals both here and overseas.

- From last book, "Questions People Ask About The Catholic Church"

"The hardest thing to find in the world today is an argument. Because so few are thinking, naturally there are found but few to argue. Prejudice there is in abundance and sentiment too, for these things are born of enthusiasms without the pain of labour. Thinking, on the contrary, is a difficult task; it is the hardest work a man can do - that is perhaps why so few indulge in it."
- Mgsr Fulton Sheen in Preface to Vol 3 (1942)
