Confirms to me that the catholic church is the one true church. Yes it has quite if few of satans soldiers trying to undermine it, and these soldiers appear to have succeeded in most of the mainline protestant churches. But the catholic doctrines concerning things like faggotry remain ans will do so despite satans best efforts. Jesus will not let the gates of hell prevail over her bride.

Sometimes it seems having all that hierarchy helps ameliorate trendy and faddish ideas. It would have to pass a whole lot of levels all over the world before being approved.
I despise Francis but I guess there are many trustworthy priests and nuns?
