About this sermon

There are many “cafeteria Catholics” in the Church today. They choose to believe or to reject Divine Revelation as one would choose or reject items at a buffet. They can often be identified by the doctrines they deny, the morals they reject, and the material they read. However, to have the theological virtue of Faith means to accept ALL that God reveals, - the entirety of the Catholic Faith -, based on His authority. One particular infallible teaching which many today find hard to accept, even amidst faithful Catholics, is the objective superiority of the celibate clerical life (and consecrated virginity) over married life. Great purity and holiness is needed to solve the problem of worldly corruption. Consecrated celibates are destined and expected to attain the highest perfection and thus help others. For more please visit http://reginaprophetarum.org & remember to say 3 Hail Marys for the priest
