All have sinned

I heard Father Corapi say something on EWTN today that I think is very enlightening. He was talking about the struggle of married people to live their marriage faithfully. He talked about the reality of people who are unfaithful to their spouse and how hard that is.

After going into some of the Church's teaching regarding marriage, he said there were many theologians and priests who openly questioned those teachings and others. What are we to think in those cases?

He said, "See? Priests struggle with infidelity just like everyone else."

Kind of puts a whole new light on things.

yeah, life is a struggle for all, so many saints have fought the good fight, who picked up their cross, just as do we.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
