Mundabor reflects on how John the Baptist would fit in our inclusive, merciful, and pastoral evangelization. Yes, I don't think St. John the Baptist would be popular with what he preached. Just as he was not liked by the people who feel offended and judged then, so will it be now. There will always be people who wouldn't want to hear the Truth.
To a certain extent, the world had never changed. Yet, it had changed so much that it could be alarming.
Most of the followers of John the Baptist became followers of Jesus. The question now is, will those who claim to be followers of Jesus heed St. John the Baptist's call and stance? That is the alarming change... what the supposed to be "Christianity" had become.
