* Forholdet mellom kristne og muslimer
\n* Katolsk identitet
\n* Sekulariseringen som Vestens krise<\/p>\n
John Allen skriver om et foredrag han holdt for en forsamling av diakoner (og deres koner) for noen dager siden. Han var spurt om \u00e5 snakke om aktuelle temaer fra Vatikanet, og valgte \u00e5 fokusere p\u00e5 de tre temaene jeg startet denne posten med.<\/p>\n
Alle disse tre punktene er av avgj\u00f8rende betydning for Kirken, sa han. Og til hvert punkt er den sentrale utfordringen \u00e5 finne det Aquinas kaller den «gyldne middelvei» mellom de to polene. Her er litt av det han sa om temaet Katolsk identitet:<\/p>\n
It\u2019s instructive to note that the term \u2018Catholic identity\u2019 does not appear in the documents of the Second Vatican Council. Such a concern would have seemed alien to many council Fathers, who presided over largely compact Catholic populations within which people memorized their catechisms, went to Mass and confession, took part in Corpus Christi processions, sent their sons and daughters to the seminary and the convent, and spoke the language of the Church without having to be reflective about it.<\/p>\n The question that drove the council was not whether we were identifiably Catholic, but rather what else we were …. At the time, a small minority inside and outside the council, a school of thought John XXIII once famously described as \u201cprophets of doom,\u201d warned that any compromise on Catholic distinctiveness would court seduction by secular modernism.<\/p>\n More than forty years later, it has to be admitted that the supreme self-confidence which allowed the majority to brush aside such concerns was perhaps a bit na\u00efve. Today, we have seen two generations of Catholics who are effectively un-catechized, a collapse in vocations to the priesthood and religious life, Mass attendance rates in some parts of Europe which dip into the single digits, and all the other familiar indicators of a Western \u2018ecclesiastical winter.\u2019 <\/font><\/i><\/p>\n LES MER OM HANS FOREDRAG HER.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" * Forholdet mellom kristne og muslimer * Katolsk identitet * Sekulariseringen som Vestens krise John Allen skriver om et foredrag han holdt for en forsamling av diakoner (og deres koner) for noen dager siden.
