June 24, 2016 - Solemnity of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist - Mass during the Day

John the Baptist was loud

He spoke clear

He condemned wrong doers in his society.

His voice never dimmed.



His passion for the right burned like a bright flame

which showed up the evil in the society of his time.

So great was his passion for the right

that it made him lose his head.



Today, we witness the dimming of voices

We witness the slowing, stilling and slurring of tongues

KorrektSpeek and political correctness are on the rise....

where have all the John the Baptists gone?
