"One of the problems with modern Western
culture is the tendency to prioritize feelings and emotions over truth
and reason. This has infected the Church as well; not offending often
takes precedence over the unambiguous teaching of doctrine and the truth
of the faith."
In a recent commentary, Monsignor Charles Pope (pastor of Holy Comforter-Saint Cyprian Parish,
Washington, DC) reflected on how truth precedes love (which otherwise is often reduced to kindness) and how, without truth, mercy is often "taught without any reference to repentance."
