The Eucharist is "the source and summit of the Christian life."
To live without faith, without a patrimony to defend, without a steady struggle for truth – that is not living, but existing.
“If you believe what you like in the Gospels, and reject what you don’t like, it is not the Gospel you believe, but yourself.”
Certainly, it is difficult to make the demands of the Gospel understandable to secularized people. But this pastoral difficulty must not lead to compromises with the truth.
A civilization inspired by a consumerist, anti-birth mentality is not and cannot ever be a civilization of love.
