By Robert Royal, The Catholic Thing - The challenges never go away, and we can’t abandon the struggle for the Good, True, and Beautiful.

We have a native bent towards Pelagianism, as if we can – in the absurd modern lie – “be anything we want,” if we just work harder, smarter, better. But we can’t.
