many Catholic Sunday Mass, even daily, to know the most elementary truths of faith. Many others, are now removed from the sacramental practice. Many more, have forgotten all about God.
Nothing is casual, and everything has its reason for being. Catholics are losing our identity because we have forgotten the doctrine and tradition. There is no doubt: our pastors have failed. In this crisis, they are the ones responsible. They are not the government or abversos to the Church or the Masons and non-Catholics. Do not look for scapegoats. Evil comes from within. The clergy are corrupt, has denied the Catholic tradition, in pursuit of "aggiornamiento." Realities
as the Last Judgement, Purgatory or Hell, dogmas like Papal infallibility and the Immaculate Conception Sacramental confession and moral precepts, are absent in sermons and catechism classes. Our pastors have chosen to hide the true much of the Deposit of Faith In this way, Our Lord was scourged, crowned with thorns and nailed to the cross, is now also gagged. His teachings are subjected to blatant censorship by the very people who should impart. Obviously
contempt of the clergy by the Magisterium of the Popes and disobedience to its policies. "He obeys, but not satisfied" ... let alone taught, we might add. Lest the faithful be scandalized.
When the bishops, being disobeyed by the presbytery, they fear exercising his authority to restore order, the entire hierarchical structure cracks. Thus, while the clergy ignores the teaching of the doctrine, or worse, authentic preaching heresy, the bishops remain silent. Harmful because they are the results: the lay faithful are plunged into the deepest ignorance, the priests are losing their faith and worship becomes a mere social gathering. Tell me, my friends, if this is not the prelude to a general apostasy.
completely secular clergy, the doctrine has been watered down and worship has become empty. Relativism was slowly taking root within the Church. And that once was a Mother fruitful, it seems to have become a barren old woman.
The population of Catholics in Europe diminishes rapidly. The continent, which has evangelized three quarters of the world, is spiritually devastated. The children have disowned her mother.
the Church's image has been distorted so that it could be applied the words of the Prophet: "We saw no compelling aspect, despised and avoided by men" (Is. 52, 15). Are these the same phrases that relate to the sufferings of Our Lord in his passion. Is that like him, the Holy Church, is on the Cross. Seems to hide its divine origin. A veil of frailty, weakness, and misery, covers its true greatness, purity and holiness.
is therefore urgent, comprehensive reform of the ecclesiastical hierarchy, the return to obedience to the Holy Father and the Magisterium of the Church. Similarly compelling is the review of the means of formation of seminarians.
Without priests loyal and committed to the truth, it will be impossible to attract the True Faith as many souls away. Only then, the Church is now in the cross with Christ, will rise with him, and regain its former glory.
From here we can only pray. Pray for the Holy Father. Just pray for all those priests, whose quiet work faithfully serve Jesus Christ. Pray by many others, who lost the Faith, for their conversion.
Forgive your people, Lord! Nichan
