Covington Catholic: Rage and civil war

Fr. Dwight Longenecker

Tuesday, January 22, 2019

The culture of relativism means that nobody trusts anybody. Nobody knows what is “fake news” and what isn’t. In an age where “you speak your truth” and “I speak my truth” nobody speaks the truth.

Nobody knows what is true or false because everyone seems to be lying and everyone seems to be lying because there is no longer any shared voice of authority in society.
