Nice Eucharistic reflection from Father Sibley.
Money quote: " People have come to expect the priest to be a joke-telling entertainer, a nice guy who puts-on a lively mass filled with action and loud music. They expect the same thing from liturgy as they do from the Cineplex."
This is spot on. If you're looking for evidence, watch Sunday Mass for how many guys you see in Polo shirts and shorts with knee-high socks and sneakers, sitting with their arm on the back of the pews with their legs crossed, as if they were at a buddy's house watching golf on the widescreen.
