To take it a step further, many Catholics don’t feel the need to learn or understand their faith, let alone share it with others.

Really? This guy insults a vast majority of Catholics and then goes on to tell us what we should do. and, we're supposed to listen to him?

I guess he really wants to be a politician.

Actually, I agree with him.

Don't think about Catholic FReepers (we are the exception), but think about your average butt-in-the-pew on Sunday Catholics. How many sign up for adult formation? How many are involved in Bible studies at the parish? How many are _______ (fill in the blank)_____? As opposed to how many show up in softball uniforms on Sunday morning...if they don't have a conflict with the kids' games.

Maybe your parish is an exceptional one...

But he’s right — the vast majority of us DON’T know our faith well enough. Folks like you are in the minority :)

Techniqually he did say “many” not “vast majority” so I fail to see how that line could or should insult you unless it describes you.

Actually, he’s simply repeating what the Church has always taught us to do. ;-)
