"Try sharing that with those with eyes that dont see, and ears that dont hear! "

If the State starts by outlawing the Catholic Church and imprisoning Bishops and Priests about a quarter of the non-Catholic Christians in this country won't be in any hurry to see the situation turned around.

Some historically Catholic countries have experienced periods of intense anti-clericalism sometimes amounting to actual warfare on the Catholic Church--France and Mexico, for example. When the Mexican government was waging war on the Catholic Church in the 1920s, some prominent Protestants in the US welcomed it, thinking it would make it easier for them to win converts in Mexico, and the Mexican President responsible was welcomed at the White House.

Of course the situation is different in the US because the Catholic Church has never been the religion favored by the government.

Unfortunately a lot of the Catholic bishops have been the enablers of a lot of the developments they now fear, by their support of Democratic politicians.

Would it suprise you that when the “attacks” start to go to other churches, than it becomes a whole different ball game. Than Christians in the USA WILL HAVE NO CHOICE but to stand in union with each other.

JMHO as well.
