And guess whose fault it is?

It's far from a secret that a whopping majority of Catholics don't know the Faith. But what is a little secretive is that the bishops know it. And going a little deeper, privately, they actually admit it. But what is most shocking is that they know they are to blame.

This past weekend, Church Militant was in Houston, Minnesota, speaking at a conference on Patriotism and Freedom and Catholicism. One of the other speakers was Fr. James Altman, who dropped the little nugget that 80% of the faithful are, in fact, not full of the Faith at all, and it's "our" fault. Which, of course, raises the not too terribly profound question, "Well, what are you doing about it?"

The U.S. bishops, at least this latest crop, are horrible examples of masculinity. They have no courage, no integrity, no honor. Many of them are homosexualists, a large percentage are liars, some are thieves. And while not all of them are wicked monsters, all of them are cowards.

Add to that the fact that they have this very disturbing practice of trying to deflect blame for their actions onto anyone they can. Privately, at least some of them are very familiar with the current disaster, but they refuse to talk about it to the sheep in the honest manner it deserves. They want to quietly try to do what they can without taking any ownership of the disaster.

As Church Militant has pointed out multiple times, they didn't start the disaster, but they have certainly accelerated and compounded it. Today's bishops were milquetoast toads when they were in seminary, the kind of biological male that inspires nothing — weak, wimpy, feminine men who got on well in a system designed to promote their type.

One of the problems with the Catholic Church is the lack of faith of the priests, who seem to regard themselves as social workers rather than as ministers of God. How can a priest who has no real faith in the spiritual or the supernatural instill faith in others? A child learns from its father, a flock is guided by its shepherd. The increasingly less-faithful take their cue from their priests, who are filled with questions and self-doubt, inner turmoil, despair, depression, filled with emptiness.

The Church needs a new direction, a new creed, but not one that is more secular. It's been slipping toward materialism and atheism for too many decades as it is. No, the Church needs the supernatural. It needs miracles and wonders. But those wonders must be based in reason. You can't ask people to believe what is obviously absurd, because in their hearts, they won't believe it. The old fables can be retained, but they must be interpreted in a new way that is not the way of skepticism or the way of materialism. People need to be told that miracles are real, but that they are not quite what is generally believed. People need to be taught a new way of seeing reality before they can truly regain their faith.
