From Notre Dame's campus paper, James Matthew Wilson addresses a crisis in today's Catholics. Have Catholics forgotten their identity and how to live the Catholic faith in the world? Or is it deeper? Is it that Catholics don't even know, or perhaps even care, about what the Church teaches and have in its stead taken up what the world teaches?

This is a great article. Wilson has picked up on the secular and individualistic tendencies that permeates in the minds of the culturally Catholic. The dichotomy between believing in a God who died for man's salvation, and the lack of difference this truth makes in the lives of believers. The shameful lack of proper catechism instruction and ignorance of basic tenets of belief in both intellectual and practical realms. This is a great piece of great Catholic and cultural relevance.
