It would be interesting and spiritually helpful to see a liturgical Day celebrating God's Justice, as a counterbalance to Mercy.
I feel that Mercy is preached too much in current Western culture, and as a result many people have lost belief in Hell.
It might be a good idea, but in today's world, people would go berserk at the suggestion.
Perhaps the most salient feature of today's society is that many, many people are mired in habitual sins of the flesh, and have made these sins into lifestyle accessories, you could say, from which they have no intention of extricating themselves. Examples would include cohabitation with possibly daily fornication, contraception, premarital sex (which is part of the cohabitation I noted above but not confined to it,, "hookup culture" is a thing), homosexual activity, pornography and self-gratification, and possibly other things. Also not to be neglected are all of the people who live in invalid marriages that are not exactly of the Josephite variety, often to people whom it would be impossible for them to marry due to an existing valid marriage to someone else (and that's adultery). Our Lady warned us wisely at Fatima that the sins that send most people to hell are the sins of the flesh. (I had someone on another forum try to claim that perhaps she was talking about gluttony. Please. That's
really reaching.)
Again, a "Feast of Divine Justice" would just drive people away, and in today's Church, in so many ways, the tail wags the dog, the inmates run the asylum, the kids tell the parents what to do. Not the way it should be, just the way it is. Your typical Catholic has no vest-pocket knowledge of what a mortal sin even
is, much less what conditions make for it, nor a thumbnail list of what those sins are.
