My point is that people aren’t educated anymore-—the educational system has been virtually destroyed—too many people—even most Catholics have no understanding of their “faith”.

So true!

As a bible study leader; my hardest job is NOT getting knowledge of the bible into folks' heads; it is REMOVING the stuff in their heads that AIN'T in the bible!

im a missionary of the ‘desert island’ doctrine

a child survives a shipwreck and lands on a desert island

he learns to catch his food and cook crabs and climb for coconuts

and he sees there’s a natural order to all things and uniqueness to every creature and providence for every need

he lays out under th stars and figures out they are other suns and there must be other worlds all spinning in harmony in an expanse greater than his understanding

he tries to fathom the enormity of it all and wonders what lies at the center of this creation

and his soul says ‘love’

then he’s rescued back to the world of man and desperately fights not to forget it
