Dynamite - Alliance Catholic Worker Newsletter February-March | Page 3

BLOWING THE DYNAMITE OF THE CHURCH “Rome will have to do more than to play a waiting game; she will have to use some of the dynamite inherent in her message.” To blow the dynamite of a message is the only way to make the message dynamic. If the Catholic Church is not today the dominant social dynamic force, it is because Catholic scholars have failed to blow the dynamite of the Church. Catholic scholars have taken the dynamite of the Church, have wrapped it up in nice phraseology, placed it in an hermetic container and sat on the lid. It is about time to blow the lid off so the Catholic Church may again become the dominant social dynamic force.” Easy Essay by: Peter Maurin WALSH UNIVERSITY STUDENTS CELEBRATE MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY AT THE WORKER 3
