What Catholics, Less than 30% of professed Catholics go to Mass every week. From what I can see very few families, Catholic or otherwise, have more than two children.
I can not think of the last time a real homily about actual consequences of sin was delivered by any priest. All of the talk in Church is about how God is Love. No talk about responsibilities or consequences. No Hell and Damnation. all touchy fealy and nobody in the pews.
. all touchy fealy and nobody in the pews.
Yeah. lot’s of talk about needing more money though.
Jim wrote: “all touchy fealy and nobody in the pews.” You should have been at my Church yesterday, where we have the Latin Mass. The priest said, in no uncertain words, that he wouldn’t give a dime to the Catholic Campaign for Human Development and we shouldn’t either, and when they took up the second collection for that organization, no one put any money in the basket.
We need more priests like that, priests who aren’t afraid to tell us what is right and what is wrong!
