Hi, my name is Fr. Mike Schmitz and this is Ascension Presents.

So sometimes these videos we make are like happy and awesome and like no problem.

I can take I can receive that word easy and sometimes the videos we make are like, hmm,

that is harder to swallow.

This might be one that is harder to swallow but I have kind of felt the need to make

this for a bit of time because I've noticed something that is becoming more and more prevalent,

actually more and more common and it's become more and more common amongst Catholics who

are in all other areas really committed to the faith, really committed to the Lord.

Like they go to Mass more than just Sunday, right?

During the week they have holy hours.

They know their way around a rosary bead, you know, kind of a thing.

And that thing of noticed is more and more have become accustomed that when they're dating someone,

spending the night, you know, sleeping in the same bed.

And when I hear a lot of times in these cases it's like, oh, yeah, we slept in the same bed,

but you know, I stayed the night, but like we didn't do anything.

Like we didn't do anything else.

We just we just slept in the same bed.

It's how is that possibly wrong?

And I mean, could you could have done worse?

And I would grant that is yes, you could have been doing worse but that doesn't mean what

that what you did was good, right?

You know, like you didn't do the worst possible thing.
