Cardinal George on a Tale of Two Churches

Cardinal George in his latest column in the Catholic New World tells the tale of two churches and covers the history and the current situation of the Church here in the United States. Our future in America may look to be rocky, but we are Catholic. Universal in time and space. We can look to our brothers and sisters who have suffered and are suffering persecution and take courage by their example. One think we know is that the Church will survive until the Lord returns. We can only pray and work to ensure that it survives here in America until that day.

Throughout history, when Catholics and other believers in revealed religion have been forced to choose between being taught by God or instructed by politicians, professors, editors of major newspapers and entertainers, many have opted to go along with the powers that be. This reduces a great tension in their lives, although it also brings with it the worship of a false god.
