Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p. Diocese of Pembroke
Reflections from the pastoral ministry of an Evangelical Catholic Priest.
No, the more Catholics study the faith, the less they like many aspects of it. The more they become acquainted with the small group of men who determine the inflexible doctrines and dogma of the faith, the less they respect and heed them.
ReplyDeleteFor the Catholic Church, the culture wars are not fought aginst some outside faction or influence but against their own who rise up in dissent.
I agree. Being a real Christian isn't easy and isn't appealing to the majority of people. That was the point of the whole narrow is the gate to heaven, wide is the road to hell narrative in scripture. Many "catholics" are not bothered by inflexible doctrines and dogmas and choose to live the easier, wide open secular road.
