Topics
Alyssa Mastromonaco: 我是90年代的天主教徒，从小就接受了完整的天主教教育。现在我看到Gen Z的新天主教徒，他们穿着休闲，自称“回家”，这让我感到不适。我觉得他们不了解梵蒂冈二世的精神，梵蒂冈二世强调教会应与世界对话，服务而非征服。我不能容忍现在这种福音派化的天主教，他们直接与上帝对话，不尊重圣徒的传统。我觉得我需要捍卫传统天主教的信仰。 Sammy Sage: 我不是天主教徒，但我理解天主教徒和犹太人之间的亲近感，因为我们都有类似的文化背景和负罪感。 Bea Spear: 我同意Alyssa的观点，这些新的天主教徒只是把天主教当成一种美学，而忽略了其真正的意义。
