Religion and culture are undeniably linked. However, some say that religion is a part of culture, and others say that culture grows out of religion.
Those who argue that religion is merely a part of the culture are really saying that there is no true religion at all. Religion, they assert, is dynamic and must change when the cultural climate changes.
At the TFP and Return to Order, we take the opposite position. Insofar as the Catholic religion defines the relationship that connects us to Our Creator, it comes before all other connections. Therefore, when Catholicism and culture clash, Holy Mother Church must prevail.
This episode of the Return to Order Moment considers the implications of that clash.
Thank you for listening.
