The Church is alot bigger than The Homily. I find it impossible to believe that if you were as concerned about this issue as you appear to be, you could have failed to grasp this.
The Church is being the Church in the Marketplace (outside the Chapel), and the first poster complains that it's "getting the government to do its job;" I guess the on the planet you were raised on, the only place the Church is allowed to be the Church is in the Chapel.
Which, as I said, is the recipe for marginalization, irrelevence, and the ruin of a nation.
To wit...
But the homily is a reflection of the larger organization. What formation are the priests receiving in the seminaries? Obviously the seminaries are not turning out priests with a passion for the Truth. More like meek little lambs afraid to hurt anyone's feelings.
The Church is being the Church in the Marketplace
In the Marketplace I see famous Catholics espousing the butchery of innocents on their way to Papal Mass Communion. In the Marketplace I see a Catholic funeral Mass preceding the scattering of Kennedy's ashes at sea. In the Marketplace I see the Vagina Monologues being performed at Catholic Universities.
There are practically no serious shepherds in America. Only Men Without Chests.
