  • Archbishop Ludwig Schick, of the German Archdiocese of Bamberg, issued an interesting warning recently. The man is slowly disappearing from the Church. Just like society, the Church is ‘feminising’. The archbishop, who holds the ‘male affairs’ portfolio within the German Bishops’ Conference, stated that “we need to win them back”.

    The Catholic Church has always maintained the innate equality of man and woman without making the mistake of saying that they are the same, a mistake that society is making. Physically, mentally and also spiritually, men and women are different. This difference is often ignored or outright denied in the name of equality, but they are very different concepts. One does not deny the other.

    Emphasising and supporting women’s rights to do or say something is not threatened by doing the same for men, but that’s not what’s happening now, because of this fear that difference means inequality (slogans to the effect that we should “be different” or “be who we are” are just that: slogans. They merely reflect society’s acceptance of certain politically correct differences).

    The Conciliar Church is about "feelings", it is oriented towards and been taken over by those classified by Briggs-Myers personality test as "feelings oriented". Among men, they constitute the smallest group at 15% of men. I've concluded that those are the type of men that enjoy going to the  Novus Ordo mass. Few men.

    There are also the men that go because of their wives or some other obligation (example for children, business contacts, friends), those have always existed, and may have been the majority of men, however, many were converted by priests who gave manly educational sermons, and example. There are few priests like that left in the Novus Ordo, and all the hand holding and kisses of peace make the mass more effeminate than it ever was in the history of the Church. Just imagine a burly docks worker giving a hug of peace, or holding hands with a steelworker, plumber , engineer. It's not natural.
