Real courage

Speaking against the Magisterium of the Church is presented as courageous. In reality, however, it does not take courage for this, since you can always be sure of audience applause. . . .Rather it takes courage to adhere to the faith of the Church, even if it contradicts the "scheme" of the contemporary world. It is this non-conformism of the faith that Paul calls an "adult faith."
