It is where life sometimes takes us. It is the map of the human heart that leads us to these places.
We are visual people. We "read" others and situations. We identify immediately or not with our surroundings. Many men no longer identify with the Church, at least not the current image.
And there we have the Attraction of Thor. These and many other men are not going to identify with Catholic "lite". Their lives are hard, and full of risk. They are fathers and soldiers or sailors or aviators. They seek not comfort but fortitude and a priest and Church that can be of help to maintain this duty and purpose in life as fathers and warriors.
Decisions are not always easy, but they can be made with at least a sense of doing what is right...if we have the Divine Will anchored in our lives.
We need to renew our efforts so that our discipleship will be a productive one in which our apostolates are fruitful. Not for our own gain or praise, but rather for the increase to the kingdom and the salvation of souls.
When social media is used as a tool to connect with like-minded individuals it works well and there are can be, and often is, a sense of shared ideas and values. It can, however, turn quickly and become a vehicle as an outlet for rage, whether justified or not.
