Monday Musings - Just Asking

I recently ran across the following quote attributed to St. Peter Canisius, a Jesuit and a Doctor of our Church:

"Better that only a few Catholics should be left, staunch and sincere in their religion, than that they should, remaining many, desire as it were to be in collusion with the Church's enemies and in conformity with the open foes of our faith.” 

Nearly five centuries after sharing this opinion, I suspect this good priest would not appreciate the current chaos of doctrinal ambiguity and/or dissent that permeates our Church and, most especially, among some of the contemporary members of his own religious order.

What do you think?
