I also have a good deal of hope for the fruits of Catholic homeschooling. We will see in an increase in vocations as Catholic homeschooling matures.

Very good point about Catholic home-schooling. On the other hand, it points out the importance of taking our children out of these so-called Catholic institutions if we want to see a restoration in the Church.

I give the Holy Spirit a little more credit than you seem to and find hope in dioceses' like those of Bishop Bruskewitz!

Please let's not blame the Holy Spirit for what's going on. God's permissive will allows evil to occur, but He never intends for these scandals to take place. As Jesus said, "Scandal will inevitably occur, but woe to that man by whom by they happen."

Ditto: Please let's not blame the Holy Spirit for what's going on. God's permissive will allows evil to occur, but He never intends for these scandals to take place. As Jesus said, "Scandal will inevitably occur, but woe to that man by whom by they happen."

And when you think about it, there are only a few hundred bishops but millions of lay catholics who should know better and insist that they will not be instrumental in destroying 2000 years of tradition and Magisterial teaching.

My motto is: NO DOCTRINE: NO DOLLARS!!
