This is Satan’s attack on the Catholic Church via the “Civil Rights” front. Will be costly, could be crippling, unless defended well legally. JMHO

I think you’re right.

However, the silver lining is that we can rejoice that we live in times where the Church must persevere through many types of subtle persecution. In that sense, we are allowed the opportunity to be, in a small way, martyrs for Christ.

It was so much easier to be a Catholic in the 40s and 50s. Now Satan runs rampant over the Earth and we are in the heart of the battle. It is a type of gift to us. In the end, there will be no lukewarm Catholics. The winnowing out continues.
