Why the immediacy?

The younger generation has more members who get what is happening than their parents.

This is obvious to me this weekend. Many seminarians understand the perilous times in which they live and for which they are preparing. But, so many of their parents, and so many of that generation are still blind-sided by the mythology which surrounds being American.

Why many people cannot see the dying of the Republic is strange to me. Why many people cannot see the real erosion of freedoms is beyond me. Do the Gen-Xers honestly believe there will be some sort of Revolution, as in the foundations of this country? Over and over, I am hearing from those in their fifties, sixties and seventies, that tyranny will never happen here. It already is. Who is stopping the advancement of the gay-agenda in schools, the loss of business owners to determine whether to hire lgtbs or not? Who is going to stop the idiocy of same-sex bathrooms, where young girls will be harassed  in places which should be safe? Who is stopping the marginalization of Catholics from discussions in the public sphere?

Who is stopping the core curriculum, which is brainwashing? Who is preparing their children to think like Catholics even under stress?

Who is learning to be peaceful in the face of great hatred of Christ, the Church, and one's own integrity?

That the twenty-somethings see the rot creeping into all levels of society is a blessing.  But, what is wrong with the older ones, who deny the realities of persecution?

This past week, I learned that a Mennomite couple  in Iowa are being sued for not allowing a ssm reception to happen in one of their properties. They have a counter-suit in progress.

Wake up, Americans.
