By Fr. George Rutler, Church Militant - Dietrich von Hildebrand wrote in 1967: Enamored of our present epoch, blind to all its characteristic dangers, intoxicated with everything modern, there are many Catholics who no longer ask whether something is true, or whether it is good and beautiful, or whether it has intrinsic value: they ask only whether it is up-to-date, suitable to "modern man" and the technological age, whether it is challenging, dynamic, audacious, progressive.
