The NYT leads with a video story regarding two "churches" on the same city block in the District of Columbia, coming together to welcome a new president.The cynicism of this pink rag delving into ecclesiology so as to "community organize" through a continuous soft coercion is astonishing. This is an out and out setting of the terms of discourse - who is who and what is what - in regard to the sacred.
Ah, yes. The sacred. Exactly. What the NYT cannot discern is that which men tred on and pay no mind to, the "treasure buried in a field" (Mt 13:44-52 or 13:44-46).
Yet the NYT understands that it is precisely at the intersection of the holy and the profane - the latter being their jurisdiction - that the hearts and souls of fallen mortals are conjoined.
Blessedly, the truth of the Gospel is vouchsafed by the Catholic Church; but alas for the stragglers for whom Catholic truth, faith, and morals are not even considered. Especially tomorrow: Inauguration Day.
