Just as a loving and dedicated father protects and leads his family to safety. The Holy Fathers of the Church have protected the faith and led the faithful to a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. In the face of dangerous heresies, the Holy Fathers have maintained the truth of Jesus Christ. If we love our family friends in any way, we should do everything in our power to bring them to the safety of the Church. It is what a loving AND HOLY father would do.
