This is a clear response by the faithful to the attempt made by the Catholic hierarchy to suppress the dogma of the Real Presence.

Nobody is attempting to suppress the dogma of the Real Presence.

Where do you dream up this nonsense?

Huh? What are you talking about? How can 24/7 Adoration not virtually shout "The Real Presence?"

The loss of faith in the Real Presense of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament is self evident in the many priests, and (sadly) some bishops who share this fate.

Much confusion and ambiguity cloud the issue in terms of what is taught to the young, and to converts. It is expressed in some catechism texts, sermons, extemporized mass prayers, hymns, etc. It is also self-evident in modern churches & wreckovated old ones.

Sadly, very few parishes actually have Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration. Most do not even have Benediction. Public devotions are normaly somewhere between being literally supressed. and treated with a sort of benign neglect - at best. They are usually not discused - their benefit to the soul not preached about, and they are certainly not encouraged for the most part.
