Being a child of the 1970s, I never memorized the works of mercy. Perhaps if I had I would have noticed that another answer to the false mercy of the Jesuit Liberal Calvinists would be the first three Spiritual Works of Mercy- at which far too many Jesuit schools are woefully inadequate.
In their rush to "Academic Freedom" under the sexual revolution, they exceed at the last four- but utterly ignore the first three. And yet, the first three are precisely how we should be showing mercy to the unrepentant.
