There's some delusion, all right, but it's not Fr. Cantalamessa who's delusional.

The quotation from Fr. Cantalamessa begins with the word "we," and is from a sermon he gave on the First Sunday of Advent in *2006* (well before the current pontificate, btw), and the context is where we are going as Christian believers when we die, that is, heaven. The word "culture" never even appears.

Don't believe me? Go here and read the whole sermon yourself.

Do you radtrad types still understand that calumny -- calumny of a priest, no less! -- is still a sin, or have you expunged that from your catechism?

Thanks for the link. Father Cantalamessa is one of my favorite spiritual writers/speakers. I often carry “The Holy Spirit in the Life of Christ” around in my purse for weeks at a time (and read it on the treadmill or at stoplights.)
