A viral homily from an Irish priest is stirring controversy after he claimed we don’t go to Mass to worship God, but to share a meal.

In this Moment of Truth segment, I break down exactly what he said, what he got wrong, what he might have meant, and why the theology behind the Mass actually proves the opposite.
