I suppose that it is all relative. Our pastor preached from Jeremiah for almost a year with each sermon lasting 45 minutes. That you have two, three or four passages read from the Bible at every Catholic Mass in the entire world does not seem all that impressive when it comes to equipping the faithful.

I'll take quality over quantity any day of the week. Judging by the idiotic clowning around I see from some of these preachers on TV, sounds like a lot of hot air.

And he made his own inference in each sermon?  Well, let's assume he didn't -- do you realise that the Catholic readings include the entire Bible?  That over the Liturgical cycles the Bible is read

Not really -- as I pointed out above -- you're too quick to jump to conclusions
