Se le chiese tendano al suicidio: in dialogo con Fulvio Ferrario

Catholic Intelligence1 min read

In brief

Fulvio Ferrario argues that both Protestant and Catholic churches face a crisis of declining worship that threatens their survival. In a dialogue with Marco Bernardoni for SettimanaNews, Ferrario examines the relationship between religious worship and life, noting that the lack of participation in Sunday liturgy is a critical issue for both traditions.

Ferrario describes a suicide of Protestantism caused by the growing distance between believers and Sunday liturgical gatherings. He notes that the decline is not merely a matter of total numbers but of active participation. He compares Sunday practice rates, stating that only 3 percent of Protestants and 7 percent of Catholics participate in Sunday worship.
