Present tea...Actually, it is the other way around-<br /><br />Present teaching is interpreted in light of past teaching, not vice versa. <br /><br />Present teaching can offer clarifications or shed light on certain issues of past teaching, but it is always present teaching that needs to be reconciled to the past, not the other way around - this is because of the fundamental nature of tradition as something that is handed on from the past, ultimately from the Apostles.Bonifacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10672810254075072214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-86126996934257512462013-12-17T13:36:00.151-05:002013-12-17T13:36:00.151-05:00Regarding the idea of integralism, is it correct t...Regarding the idea of integralism, is it correct to say that present teachings interpret past teachings of the Church? Would the most recent encyclical on a given topic be the interpretive 'key' through which to understand prior ones, say, on the same topic?Not That Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14793694853324262365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-65084349051576983042013-12-09T18:45:51.580-05:002013-12-09T18:45:51.580-05:00I don't know where you were a youth minister o...I don't know where you were a youth minister or for how long, but I don't think you have an accurate picture of youth ministry.<br /><br />NCYC is a great event. I have taken several groups. My last group experienced many things that helped form their catholic identity: rosary, Adoration, Latin hymns, and much more. <br /><br />Youth ministers are fighting a losing battle; only 5% of registered parishioners go to mass and are faithful to the teachings of the church. Youth ministry is NOT an answer to getting more people to mass. It's a ministry to young people that need help in their faith journey.<br /><br />People talk about the parents being the primary catechists, but half the time teens don't even talk to their parents or see them. It is rare to get more that one or two parents to help out with ministry unless you're in a large parish.<br /><br />If you have a youth minister in the parish the best thing you can do is HELP! I can't tell you how many times I've been approached by "traditionalists" saying they wish we did this or that traditional thing and I say great: "CAN YOU HELP"...nothing! Great are the times when people have ideas and they are willing to help. Help your Catholic ministers out.<br /><br />Oh yeah, if you're seeing a youth minister that is lacking education in the faith...once again...HELP! Give them a book or show them where they are wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086833995941525990.post-850580593949856932013-12-05T18:37:21.710-05:002013-12-05T18:37:21.710-05:00Dear Brother Boniface.
