And my relationship with The Lord is fine. The Catholic Church is lost. I am Christian. I am also an American. A citizen of the nation that has promoted the fairest and best way of life ever known to man. Also the nation that has sent forth millions to spread the word of Jesus far more than any other.
But the RCC is not what Jesus had in mind. Art treasures? Property? Indulgences? All are a big part of the Church. But they don't feed the poor or spread the true word.
If Jesus came back today, he would chase the bishops out.
Time for the Church to realize that we Americans respect our laws. Illegal means illegal.
Well, the Church wouldn't be able to do some of the good it does without assets to leverage.
The canard of "feeding the poor" is a false one, as even Jesus Himself didn't feed all the poor when He was alive.
If Jesus came back today, he would chase the bishops out.
He might, but you are being presumptuous if you think Jesus would be standing with you against these illegal immigrants.
The people are the Church. Those who are active that I know are far from lost.
Indulgences? All are a big part of the Church.
Not the last time I looked.
But they don't feed the poor or spread the true word.
No, artwork and property (church buildings?) don't feed the poor. Money collected from the Church feeds the poor. Catholic Charities is huge. (OK, hugh.)
If Jesus came back today, he would chase the bishops out.
Some of them, yeah. He could do the same to ANY clergy from ANY church.
Time for the Church to realize that we Americans respect our laws. Illegal means illegal.
I agree.
