Watching the unedifying press attacks on the Pope and the Church in general, I was struck by a thought. What they hate about us is not the failings (priests who abuse their position and others etc) it's the witness to truth. Particularly the moral teachings of the Church and the fact that the vast majority of priests and religious can and do live fulfilled celibate lives; that Catholic couples who follow the Church's teaching do stick together and achieve long and ultimately happy marriages (whatever travails there may be along the way).
I guess that troubles the consciences of many....

attend after all

2 For every meeting delayed is another meeting where the world might end
first.
