Neo-Church’s Naturalistic Grief Exposes Apostasy
The cited article from EWTN News reports on the tragic murder of Sheridan Gorman, a student at Loyola University Chicago, allegedly by an illegal immigrant. It details the outpouring of grief from university officials, a campus ministry (“Loyola Cru”), and Cardinal Blase Cupich. The response is characterized by psychological and humanistic language—”heavy with grief,” “compassionate, selfless, kind,” “Jesus is our refuge and shelter,” “darkness of this world does not overshadow the light of Christ’s love”—while being utterly devoid of the supernatural, sacrificial, and juridical framework of the Catholic faith. This constitutes a stark manifestation of the “neo-church’s” complete theological and spiritual bankruptcy, reducing the Christian mystery to a vague, comforting sentimentality that has no place in the integral Catholic religion.
