In this Underground episode, Michael Matt connects Pope Pius XII's prophetic warning about the "loss of the sense of sin" to today's scandals that are having a “coming out” party through the Synodal Church.
From Vatican promotion of LGBT initiatives to the normalization of public scandal; from Pope Leo XIV to the controversy surrounding the SSPX, this episode asks one question:
If sin is no longer considered sin, what becomes of the Church's mission to save souls?
Michael explores:
• Pope Pius XII's warning about the “loss of the sense of sin”
• The rise of serious scandal from the highest levels
• Synodality and the changing priorities of the modern Church
• Pope Leo XIV’s public scold of the SSPX vis-à-vis Vatican II
• Why many argue the Church is living through a true state of emergency
• The debate surrounding the SSPX and the preservation of Catholic Tradition
The salvation of souls must always be the supreme law of the Church.
