A recent poll from Decision Research shows that a majority of Catholics in Massachusetts -- 53 percent -- favor same-sex civil marriage.

Talk about a crisis of catechesis! And what more could we expect when people are raised on the notion that "God is love, so let's love one another" is all there is to their faith?

I believe this is now changing as more bishops are stepping up to the lectern to address the serious crisis of Catholic faith to which their congregations have been exposed over the past 40 years. This will not happen overnight ... we may not even see the full fruits of it in our lifetime, but the shift has begun.
