Man Cannot Abide Disorder Very Long | Fr. Hans Homily

Description: Fr. Hans confronts the modern belief that individuals can stand as neutral judges of truth, exposing it as a form of pride no earlier civilization would have recognized. He contrasts this posture with the humility of ancient peoples who understood themselves as living within an order they did not create. He argues that Christ is the fulfillment of humanity’s ancient search for meaning, the “myth made real,” and the true foundation of both personal and civilizational stability. When societies reject this foundation in favor of secular ideologies, they do not become free but fragmented, as man cannot abide disorder for long and will always seek a substitute master. The homily ultimately calls for a purification of the heart and a humble reception of divine revelation, reminding us that truth is not something we possess or invent, but something we are invited to live within.
