+Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam+
Friends, Family and Other Readers,
The above is from Pew Research Center.
As you can see, the number of those in the US identifying as "strong Catholics" is at a record low in the US, down to 27%.
Meanwhile, the number of "strong Protestants" is at a record high in 30 years at 54%.
And yet only HALF of that 27% saying they are strong Catholics says they go to mass weekly!
Matthew 7:
16 By their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit, and the evil tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can an evil tree bring forth good fruit.
This is the counsel our Lord Jesus Christ gave us to identify good from bad, truth from untruth, true prophets from false prophets.
Many would have us believe today that the fruits are rotten because of society.
It is the other way around.
Society is rotten because of a crumbling Church.
I have quoted it before, but here it is again:
"All of the problems in the world are due to lukewarm Catholics." - Pope St. Pius V
"Food" for thought...and prayer more importantly.
God Bless,
Tyler
