People No Longer Want to Be Free


I have been thinking of many things this past week after the sad days in Boston.

One thing which is more and more obvious to me is that most people only want security and not freedom.

They want to feel secure about money, public safety, health, housing, the future.

They look to the State for all these things. How sad, and how dangerous.

Most people do not want the freedom of personal responsibility.

Most Catholics are not aware that socialism has been condemned over and over and over again by all the Popes since 1848.

One cannot be a Catholic and a socialist.


One cannot wish for security outside of Providence.

It is trust in God, the Father and the assurance of the Indwelling of the Trinity which gives us security. Nothing else.

If we sell our souls for security on earth, we shall absolutely lost eternal bliss.

There is no middle ground, none.

Freedoms mean that we must take responsibility for our own lives.

We must work, pray, play, be good citizens, read, study.

I see in it adult Catholics who REFUSE to study the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

They are going to lose eternal life, as it is our baptismal duty to know our faith, which means giving it effort.

I cannot teach, as people do not want teachers. I cannot speak the Truth, as I am told to be quiet and be nice.

I make people uncomfortable with my blog.


Good.

To follow Jesus is to put rocks in your shoes, and to accept the ones there and move on towards the goal.

Never give up. Never give in, or you will be lost. Pray for perseverance.
