XYZ, ETC, and ICXC

We have a whole generation that has either grown up home schooled, Harry Potter fed, classically read – or been indoctrinated by politically correct, often anti-Christian, public schools.

When they come to the Church, what do they seek?

It is a country with an ‘ideal’ form of communism, in which everything really does belong to everybody, everyone does the work they want to, and everyone is alright with that. This country uses gold for chamber pots and prison chains, pearls and diamonds for children’s playthings, and requires that a man and a woman see each other exactly as they are, naked, before getting married. This book gave the word 'utopia' the meaning of a perfect society, while the Greek word actually means ‘no place’. Enjoy listening to this story about a country that really is too good to be true.
