Archbishop Gomez, President of the American Bishops Conference and Archbishop of Los Angeles, recently gave a speech which directly addressed the pressures from the politically correct “woke culture” that is increasingly hostile to Christ and the Church. Following upon Pope Benedict XVI’s warning about the demands of the culture to bow down before it and the specter of the anti-Christ and President Putin’s warning that the dominant Western culture is now thoroughly following the Marxist play book that led to such disaster in Russia, Archbishop Gomez’ strong warnings and "simple solution" are well worth paying attention to. Now, who else will step up?

Ralph comments on a recent speech by Vladimir Putin warning that forms of "social progress" we see today aren’t always the good they’re perceived to be; rather, we need to be alert to the anti-Christian creed being proclaimed by society and resist the works of the devil by putting on the spiritual armor proclaimed by St. Paul.
