The homily is another homerun BUT…
so many of the faithful are like “sheep without a shepherd” for this sort of teaching is rare in the trenches. Even the papal preacher this week sends out an admonition to priests to ‘do not judge’. A cardinal recently spoke out against the practice of homosexuality and someone in the vatican has reprimanded him. It is like how dare anyone suggest that another person might be in a state of sin!
