Priest's Appeal to World's Bishops

These days seem to be marked with much confusion and uncertainty in our Church.
I found this article earlier today and hope it gives some comfort that there are priests who are respectfully requesting a clear presentation on some of the essential matters of the Catholic faith.
I, for one, think that the time for wishy-washy Catholicism has to end. If we are to set about with the New Evangelization called for by the Second Vatican Council and the post-Conciliar popes, then we need a clear presentation of the faith. I recall the words of Jesus, "Let your yes be yes and your no be no." We cannot have a divided Catholicism, one region of the world teaching this and another teaching that. The time has come for us to have our "ducks all lined up" - teaching what the Church has faithfully taught since the time of Jesus and the Apostles. I believe that our young Catholics want clear direction and teaching. Let us not abandon them to the wolves of secularization and relativism.
Let us no longer be timid about our Catholic faith. No, like Saint Paul, we need to be strong and bold.
