I'm a Catholic, too, and I've been calling for Catholic FReepers to FReep their local Diocese.
A month ago, I spoke to a Sister Therese about my disgust with the stance, or lack thereof, that the Catholic Church in Florida has taken re: Terri Schiavo. According to this nun, she had not even heard of Terri's plight prior to my mentioning it.
After giving her a three minute overview, her reply was one which defended the FL Bishops, stating that "sometimes it is more merciful to allow a person to die." Lovely, huh? When I then moved her perspective over into the Capital Punishment and Roe vs, Wade arenas, she basically folded her hand by stating she was leaving our Churches decisions to the Bishops.
So, when the Devil wants to lead God's flock astray, he need only don the garments of our Church leaders...
Excuse me, while I go throw up, Sister.

Employees of churches are usually the last to want to rock the boat. Why? Their conscience hears a small voice saying "Your funding might be jeopardized"!
