I know so many people who have lost their faith because of lack of education. It's sickening.

This weekend, the bishops in Massachusetts are asking parishioners (before and after Mass) to sign pre-printed postcards asking their state representatives and senators to allow a vote on a state constitutional amendment restricting marriage to a union of one man and one woman. The Church is collecting the postcards and mailing them. It's good to see the bishops taking action.

On the downside, I'd say that about 10% of churchgoers took the time to sign them. I saw more than a few look at the postcard tables with disgust.
