The editorial argument frames faith as something society must truly “try,” emphasizing worship centered on the triune God, fuller appreciation of the liturgy and Mass, and stronger use of scripture in religious education.

beentried and found wanting;it has been found difficult and not tried.\"Save only for the saints,who are,alas,rare in any milieu,hisstatement holds true to a large extent even in the lives of individ-uals.There is far less room for argument about its truth as appliedto society.And yet,just as in our personal lives we are bound bythe obligations of religious profession to strive valiantly for Chris-tian perfection,so also,by our apostolic commitment,we are boundto help redeem society.We are bound to strive that Christianitymay,at long last,be\"tried\"in this,our day,by this,our society,the generation that is God’s will for you and me.Merely to wringone's hands and say that the world,or at least the teenage partof it,is going hopelessly astray and there is nothing we can doabout it,serves no constructive purpose.Even the most superficialknowledge of history will suggest that the world has been goingin the same regrettable direction ever since the initial disaster somehundreds of thousands of years ago.But the salvation of that veryworld was worth Christ's passion,somehow,and is thereforeworthy of anything we have to give.  \nWhat must we strive to give?What would a society be likethat was really\"trying\"Christianity?First of all,it would carefor the first commandment:adore the triune God.God would bethe acknowledged center;worship would be a matter of first im-portance,ultimately recognized as the only matter of importance,since every human activity should be oriented to worship.Ourschools are accused of reducing religion to morality,of reducingreligious practice to the obligation,conceived in moral rather thanin more properly religious terms,of attending Mass on Sundayand frequenting the sacraments.Beyond that,the critics say,weare interested in pious devotions of doubtful value,not all ofwhich are free,even,from the taint of superstition.Obviously,wecannot stop stressing the obligation of Sunday Mass,and the neces-  \nsity of using the means of grace God has appointed.But relativelymore emphasis could be placed on what the Mass is,on the beautyof the liturgy,on the privilege and
