The Signs of our Times — and What they Require from Priests

And that’s what I’m here to talk to you about today — the signs of our times and what they mean for us as priests. We could choose dozens of different trends to discuss, but I want to focus on six specific signs: the confusion of priestly identity; globalization; the worship of science; the diminishment of the human person; the rise of practical atheism; and sex as a cheap substitute for transcendence.

this is a great article and i would recommend everyone to read it, especially the skeptics and nonbelievers who frequent these forums. i’m curious as to how they would respond.

i especially love the quote about sex being “the mysticism of the modern world”.
