Episode #4749 – Thoughts on Optimism & Pessimism in Catholicism (Reair 091725)

Welcome to a Brain Wrinkling Wednesday with Fr. Tom Koys.  Today Father open with reflection on what has happened over the last week with so much going on in the world. He focuses on speaking about optimism and pessimism in Catholicism. He uses Narnia to help offer insight on how to be optimistic as a Christian in a world in a time when a lot of negative, pessimistic stuff is going on.  To be optimistic is not really the virtue of Christian Hope, because Christian Hope includes hope in a power above and beyond us.  That’s why we can never deny the cross, never make fun of it as many people are carrying the cross. The spirit of always being upbeat and happy at Catholic mass doesn’t seem to fit because part of the mass is to give us the supernatural hope of God’s ability to conquer the problem and walking with us in our sorrows.
