"The world is hyperventilating like I've never seen it before.
Particularly for anyone who watches broadcast news (I do''t) or
participates in social media platforms (sadly, I do), the world has been
coming at us like one of those egregious music videos where images and
scenes are fast-cut and flashing by so quickly you can barely make them
out. Rather than a coherent narrative, what one takes away from it is an
overall sense of things -- a feeling, a vibe. It is empty, slightly
disorienting and probably more subliminally persuasive than we want to
admit."
In a recent commentary, writer Elizabeth Scalia reflected on the confusion, anger, hatred and distrust being experienced in our times on on the call of Jesus on on our need to "step back, slow down the breath, whisper up a prayer to the One who is
All-Wisdom, and refuse to just jump, jump, jump to the cacophony of
confusion."
