I guess the truth does hurt a bit..One must admit the changes taking place during these times are questionable..Mass, these days, in some parishes are straddling the line....Laity has taken over all aspects of services, we are becoming more and more protestant, women in the sanctuary, as communion servers, etc. is it any wonder young male adults are shying away, they are being discouraged rather than encouraged into entering God's service....I know, I know, things do change over the years, but what are we hastening to? Mass, in some churches follow assembly line services..Hurry the crowd in, make sure the entire assemblage receives the Host regardless of whether or not they have been to confession the past year or so. Is this what we have become? Where is the reverance to the Holy Eucharist,the Host that we truly believe to be the body and blood of Jesus Christ. I think it is time for us to step back and take a good look at what we doing and where we are going. Eternity is forever, and we better prepare for it.
We do indeed need to get back to basics. And while change is necessary, radical change is a sign of corruption. What's going on now is certainly a revolution--a take-over by modernists who are attempting to impose a new protestantizing religion. It is not Catholic and must be resisted by the faithful.
