By Fr. George Rutler, Church Militant - It is harder to make silence than noise. Because of modern cacophony, especially in what passes for music in the form of amplified "rock" sounds, young people are growing increasingly deaf. In urban areas, silence is so uncommon that one becomes suspicious of silence, rather like the dog that did not bark in Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Adventure of Silver Blaze" detective story… Satan and his evil spirits are noisy. Jesus told an evil spirit to be silent (Mark 1:25)… Our Lord always was precise. So should we be, in order to hear God. "Be still and know that I am God" (Psalm 46:10).
