Look in the mirror, Father. (I’m speaking collectively).
Maybe if the clergy wasn’t so woke, the Church might have capitalized on the sentiment and helped lead more to Christ.
Instead, we get SJW with a thin veneer of tradition hiding the rot of corruption and worldly influences. We dont’t need the church for that when we can it from Hollywood and without the associated faux guilt trips.
Fr. Perricone is aware of this. From the article:
“Writing 20 years ago, he observed, “Words like ‘sin,’ ‘Satan,’ ‘saintliness,’ and ‘virtue’ have all been made to sound slightly eccentric by secularism’s totalizing reach. It is no surprise that it has tunneled deep within religion itself. More than a few priests are slightly embarrassed by the vocabulary of religion.”
