“There are fewer priests because of the lack of discipline in example and training being given to the young men aspiring to become priests.

Instinctively, the young men are weighing the beauty of such service to God against the obvious increase in a lack of Holiness, a lack of self-discipline, a lack of strength in character; also, the shallow example of the present priests in all areas of the Priesthood.

Youngsters do not admire nor do they feel drawn to confusion. They want to be able to see something extraordinary to strive for, and to partake in. They want to feel the security in strength of order, and they want the vocation of the Priesthood to be one of dignity, constantly expressing its worthwhile goals.

For several years now we have had too much freedom and intimacy in relationships with the priests. Also, the replacement of the clerical clothes for more casual attire that so many priests have adopted, says there is nothing to show that the man is a priest because he has lost his pride in being recognized as a Man of Service to God through Holy Mother Church.

Needless to say, the swing of so many priests leaning towards being called ‘Father Bill’, ‘Father Ed’, ‘Father Mike’, ‘Father Joe’, diminishes the relationship to a buddy system.

Sound Christian leadership in Holy Mother Church openly expresses dignity, sincerity, fidelity, outstanding Christian virtues, always proud to be in the service of God, attending and guiding His children.

During the onslaught of Pentecostalism and the Charismatic Movements, the emotionalism and supposed gifts of The Holy Spirit, caused a raging inferno of humanism amongst people in every area of life. The false idea that some people could babble in tongues, making them appear as though they acquired a superior gift of supernatural power, was definitely satanic in its very essence.

Much of this opened the door to many people seeing evangelization as a monetary source for living. Some men, some women, and even a few children began campaigning, trying to outdo each other in drama, in lies, and anything that would attract people to them.

Children are not being taught properly about their Roman Catholicism, nor do they have enough good example for them to be able to distinguish the value of Christian virtues over immorality.

It is important for people of all ages to understand that children depend upon adults in so many ways. Children must learn what is good and how to discern it from what is bad and wrong. This learning is passed on to children from people who care, who have already learned, are experienced, and are qualified to teach to the younger ones, all areas of life and all subjects of life.

We do not learn from the young. The young imitate and learn from those who have grown in age, through the channels of experience, wisdom, intellect and moral obligations, plus physical wear and tear.

We must not allow youngsters to tell us what we must do. We must never forget that our role as adults has responsibility and must consistently show the importance of human dignity, and the real Purpose for the physical life: to become a Saint.

An important question to be considered, answered, and resolved is: ‘What will it take to make people more conscious of sound morality?’

Perhaps the answer lies within the drive to openly show our Rejection of what is wrong and our Objection to all that is immoral. It’s worth a try, and the best time to start is NOW.”
