There is no other choice.
What we are looking at in today's religious and cultural breakdown is the combination of two factors, each of which has played out in two stages and all of which has now combined.
In the Church, the heresy of modernism is now in near-total control. It was first identified by Pope St. Pius X back in 1907 when he called modernism the synthesis of all heresies, which indeed it is. Every heresy takes some aspect of truth and perverts it, which is why it may not be immediately recognizable.
In the culture, we have communism rising, just as we do modernism in the Church, and, following the same type of game plan, that political system presents some truthful cultural dynamic, such as the uneven distribution of wealth, and then perverts it.
It's interesting to note that the first phase of modernism and communism appeared on the world stage at roughly the same time and same locale, which would be modern-day Germany. They are, in fact, siblings, as it were, since religion and culture are always bound together so intricately. Both agents, modernism and communism, however, do not content themselves merely to make commentary on the current state of affairs, but rather create a revolution within their own spheres and overthrow the existing order.
