...as if God himself came down from above to rescue the flailing Church, another voice is heard; Join Now!!...while God still approves!! My little ones, we are here to help you thru life's trials! Come now!! Before your redemption is compromised!!

...idiots.

Uggggh.

That person is an example of what I mean when I say they are enablers. It's pretty clear she would rather keep the status quo and fix noththing. She doesn't give a shit about children as a priority. She makes it clear what "sins" she cherry picks: The fetus overrides child rape, women's rights or gay rights. Full stop.

This is what I mean by empowering the Church by numbers which ultimately can impact the laws they influence and impose on others (women's reproductive services) and what they can get away with within.


The comments are comical and revealing as well between "other" Christians. It's dueling scripture time!

I'm not so sure her loyalty to the Church will be appreciated by the little child who will get groomed to trust religious authority today.

"Nothing could have prevented me from coming home to the Catholic Church after I had studied its history and the truth and beauty of what I found there."

She must have studied catholic history like mormons study mormon history...skipping all the real parts!

All she did was find institutional support for her private prejudices.

I recommend church hopping. When the love bombing stops, hop to the next one.

"The other great faiths are falling one by one into heresy, especially when it comes to "LGBTQ" issues. Where is there left to go with a biblical view on human sexuality? Not the Episcopalians, Anglicans, some Baptists, Presbyterians, Methodists and more."

Catholicism is bad but I can't criticize her view here. It's true that American Protestant Christianity is going down the toilet, all kinds of weirdness are accepted because we have this current culture of really nice people who just shouldn't say what they really think. And lots of millennial snowflakes running around everywhere.

Also the Mega preachers are way too scared to be clear on doctrine like they were back in the 80s and before when things were clearer and they were way less obviously interested in money.

It will be interesting to see if the Catholics can really hold on to the traditional beliefs going into the future or if concessions will need to be made to keep the snowflakes happy. I don't know the future?

I'd rather be a "snowflake" than a bigoted, ignorant ass any day.

So you're of the belief that there is a ghawd in heaven who is against "all kinds of weirdness"?

I am interested in your list of what is right & proper and what is weirdness.

Are you by any chance our banned, unlamented prior poster formerly known as Poopstone?

Your views are identical to his, as far as I can tell, and you have the same thin grasp of English as he did.
