Whilst on topic of Medjugorje, the new evangelisation newspaper 'Alive' has a section on "What God Means to me?. Medjugorje is often a place mentioned by the columnists. In Ireland, you would fill a conference hall if you had a talk on seers, Visionaries, etc etc. It would be a struggle to fill a room if a doctrinal conference was organised. When the relics of St Therese were here several years ago, churches and cathedrals were packed. There is piety and spirituality here but dogma and doctrine and social Catholicism is weak. Baptisms, weddings, funerals are not taken seriously.
