"I think the guy leans liberal, like many priests of his generation. I think the best priests are really old, really young or foreign! Those who went to the seminaries in the 70s and 80s were done a huge disservice, as were those of us who grew up Catholic in the 70s and 80s."

I've noted this myself, and have heard many others say it. You're right. There was a specific generation of Catholics that were indeed quite corrupted in their teachings. They're about middle age now. Both the truly older priests and the young ones seem to be far far wiser and have a greater grasp of doctrine than that one rather twisted generation.

Faith --- Yes Faith --- How do I GET faith??

Faith comes by hearing!! (Hearing you say) - Yes - Hearing.

Faith Comes by hearing, and hearing the Word of God!

How do we HEAR the Word of God to receive this faith?

By Reading His Word!

Read the Bible to hear His Word to Receive Faith!

Go ahead - I dare you, read it, then you will have no doubt in your mind as to whether it is the truth of God or not. It is the literal, God Breathed Word of God with power to save you and give you wisdom and understanding, and to open your eyes, it will all make sense after you read it. Put down the theology books and the cozy Christian coffee table books and read His Word that was written to you.
