No one is forced to be a Christian. But no one should be forced to live according to the "new religion" as though it alone were definitive and obligatory for all mankind.
“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.”
A civilization inspired by a consumerist, anti-birth mentality is not and cannot ever be a civilization of love.
That Christianity gives joy and breadth is also a thread that runs through my whole life. Ultimately someone who is always only in opposition could not endure life at all.
Evil too, will always be part of the mystery of the Church. And when we see what men, what the clergy have done in the Church, then that is nothing short of proof that he [Christ] founded and upholds the Church. If she were dependent on men, she would long since have perished.
I must admit that I found it almost humorous to see Steve Skoject of all people titling a piece "Papal Letter Appearing to Support Communion for Divorced & Remarried Emerges".
