If this person is not a IPR [informed practicing Catholic} I too would be leery of there theology and teaching. There is but a single truth for every issue.
As Pope Benedict said:
“there cannot be my truth and your truth, or there would be NO TRUTH!”
Deuteronomy 13
Worshipping Other Gods
1 If a prophet, or one who foretells by dreams, appears among you and announces to you a miraculous sign or wonder, 2 and if the sign or wonder of which he has spoken takes place, and he says, "Let us follow other gods" (gods you have not known) "and let us worship them," 3 you must not listen to the words of that prophet or dreamer. The LORD your God is testing you to find out whether you love him with all your heart and with all your soul. 4 It is the LORD your God you must follow, and him you must revere. Keep his commands and obey him; serve him and hold fast to him.
6 If your very own brother, or your son or daughter, or the wife you love, or your closest friend secretly entices you, saying, "Let us go and worship other gods" (gods that neither you nor your fathers have known, 7 gods of the peoples around you, whether near or far, from one end of the land to the other), 8 do not yield to him or listen to him. Show him no pity. Do not spare him or shield him. 9
it is impressive all the different (SAINTS) gods that are available to PRAY too get something
3 you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, for the yawah your God is testing you to know whether you love the yawah your God with all your heart and with all your soul. 4
, what is this from? It’s NOT THE BIBLE!
Finally, finally, I really didn't meet any boys at Boysville who had any spiritual or religious interest but one thing Alvin Glombowski was right about.
Boysville did not offer a spiritual life experience.
[PJM… my personal life experience was different than you describe, however I know that the school changed greatly after I graduated in 1963.
So you might be correct? It certainly is true now!
