Also from three audience:

” Unfortunately, there have often been attempts to obscure faith in the Resurrection of Jesus, and doubts have crept in even among believers themselves. A watered down faith, as we would say, not a strong faith. This is because of superficiality, sometimes because of indifference, occupied by a thousand things considered more important than the faith, or because of a purely horizontal vision of life.”

While not specifically about women, the sad fact is that a watered down faith is weak. Surprised that Father Z didn’t twig on that, as the assessment directly opposes today’s happy clappy version of Catholicism that springs from so many pulpits.
