What is Formation & What are Problems in Today's Formation ~ Fr. Ripperger

We see now why control of "The Narrative" is so important to the enemies of Christ, for "The Narrative" has the power to form or mal-form man.


Thank you Father.

The new mass raised Catholics to be lukewarm in their faith. I am a product of that era and only realized it after attending the Latin Mass on a regular basis. Thank you Fr. Ripperger.

Thank you Father. Too many people being formed by TVs.

This is fantastic information. It will take several iterations to grasp it all, but it is eye-opening.

One question on the Common Sense Power creating an "image" in the imagination....
The word "image" conveys sight.
However , the CSP deals with sight, sound, smell, touch and taste....
Ergo, it stands to reason that "image" refers to a "model" of those things.
Is this correct?

Furthermore, in the realm of "sight" , "image" suggests something like a painting or a photograph..
However, what about "moving images" that play out in our imagination....
For example,
Imagining a new musical work.
Imagining a scene in a play
Imagining being Mike Alstott and running over linebackers on the way to the end zone.
etc.

This suggests that an "image" is not static.

Thank you for your work.

I thank God very often for the gift of you.

In Christ...

P.S. "I exercise dominion over my imagination" seems self evident...i.e. I can, should and must take custody over the content of my imagination .
P.P.S. I assume it is true that sanctification leads to pure imaginations.

God bless, and thanks again.
