We need to communicate our beliefs at every opportunity. Once we leave the Church building, we must live as God commanded the rest of the week. We must say it out loud, everywhere.
There are some who hide behind false ideas: “It’s wrong to force your beliefs on others.” And they want a secular/liberal country that is governed by those like them by force of law. Abortion, prostitution, the degradation of men and women in pornography is what they love. They want the world reformed to their image and likeness, and they want, if possible, as many Christians to join them as they can.
They are legislating immorality. They are forcing people to accept ways of living that degrade man.
You can’t force another person to love you, and God will not force you to love Him and neither will the Church. I guarantee that if you miss Mass on Sunday, a priest will not be pounding on your door on Monday demanding to know where you were.
Anyone who studies Church teaching will realize that the Church is the greatest truth-telling institution on Earth. And we should model Christ and act on our faith and act out our faith daily.
Peace,
Ed
