How to Restore a Culture in One Easy Step by Joe Carter
Someone recently spoke or wrote about treating the Bible as literature... who was it? Anyway, how are you going to motivate people to read Sacred Scripture if they are not already Christian? And what of the rule of faith? After all, if sola scriptura sine traditione is the principle by which one reads the bible, even if you could get a non-Christian to read the bible, what is to prevent him from loosing interest once he has interpreted it according to his desires?
But Mr. Carter is addressing his post to believers, and Catholics should do more to read the Bible. But that isn't the only thing they need to improve their spiritual lives, and even if Christians became more fervent and leaven, the culture would not be restored so quickly.
