[Salvation]

**for a more lay-directed Church.**

Won’t happen.

They don’t understand the hierarchy, Pope, Bishop, priests, laity.

Amen to that.
One can only IMAGINE the chaos that would ensue if there were a "more lay-directed" Church:

All KINDS of special agendas
women's/gay lib
people allergic to wine and wheat screaming for alternatives
same-sex marriage
multi-wife and/or husband marriages
women priests
shutting down of confessionals
communion for those living in sin
approval of "alternate life styles"
women wanting to wear their bathing suits to Mass...ok, I made that one up.

and so much more of Lucifer's bailiwick. I think I made my point.

SHUDDER!
