About Charles Chiniquy
- Charles Paschal Telesphore Chiniquy (30 July 1809 – 16 January 1899) was a Canadian Catholic priest who left the Catholic Church and became a Presbyterian minister.
- He rode the lecture circuit in the United States denouncing the Catholic Church.
- His themes were that it was pagan, that Catholics worshipped the Virgin Mary, and that its theology was anti-Christian.
- He warned of plots by the Vatican to take control of the United States by importing Catholic immigrants from Ireland, Germany, and France, and suggested that the Vatican was behind the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
