Thank God the Catholic Church has not yet knelt to the altar of modern liberalism the way many, many other Christian denominations have. I truly believe the last great hope for Western Civilization (or a civilized free world) is Jesus Christ. Communists like Antonio Gramasci recognized that the Church was the main thing standing in the way of winning the hearts and minds of the masses to a philosophy of God-less secularism. That is why we see the unrelenting onslaught on Christianity.
It reminds me of Jesus’ words, “A slave is not greater than his Master. If they hate me they will hate you as well.”
May the Good Lord have mercy on us.

At times I think the Vatican II has moved the Church towards modern Liberalism. My mothers generation grew up with such reverence for all things Holy and now after Vatican II they try to move away from these things and act more like other christian denominations.

It seems to me the Church has the same battle within that our country has, one part is conservative and the other half liberal.
