My title question masks a deeper one which is perhaps more to the point. Are the indifference and even hostility to Christ so great in the world today that we are excused from meeting the challenges of raising our children Catholic, seeking to deepen the faith and commitment of our fellow Catholics, and attempting to evangelize others in the midst of a secular culture that is just not interested? I suppose this question answers itself except for one thing: Do not many of us at least secretly believe that the contemporary culture of the West is so uniquely uninterested and even hostile to Christ that it is all but pointless to engage in any sort of mission?
