At the Third Station of the Cross, where Jesus falls for the first time, Archbishop Comastri has written: “Lord, we have lost our sense of sin. Today a slick campaign of propaganda is spreading an inane apologia of evil, a senseless cult of Satan, a mindless desire for transgression, a dishonest and frivolous freedom, exalting impulsiveness, immorality and selfishness as if they were new heights of sophistication.”Comments...Ok, but you're late. Adorno and Marcuse and Irigaray &ct. have all worried over this too. Problem is, fellas, you and I (liscenced secular humanist) have VERY different ideas about the response to these problems. Time for another CoL post in the AM. Right between the Dying and the Resurection, right while the miracle of the creation of Christ was taking place.Satan? Mammon! Look in the right place. For now, more at Pandagon.
At the Fourth Station, where Jesus is helped by Simon the Cyrene to carry the cross, Pope Benedict and his followers will pray: “Lord Jesus, our affluence is making us less human, our entertainment has become a drug, a source of alienation, and our society’s incessant, tedious message is an invitation to die of selfishness.”
