It's especially bizarre when kids are being starved of the real faith and nobody seems much concerned. The decline in belief is totally ignored--deliberately ignored, I should say. What Rome apparently wants is to raise a generation ignorant of the faith--so that it may instill more modernist doctrines and replace two thousand years of inconvenient catechesis. If this isn't so--then why is it dithering with such nonsense instead of rolling-up its sleeves and preaching the Gospel?
I will admit right off the bat that I'm not as smart as the Vatican people, but my confidence in them just keeps slipping and slipping and slipping, to the point where I'm staring to think perhaps Catholicism isn't my home anymore.
The only thing that keeps me Catholic is The Liturgy. It's true, I know it's true, and I don't want to abandon it, but I can't close my eyes to the things that seem so awry to me, so many of the Shepherds seem unwise and inattentive. It's a big struggle for me.
