I understand. Most protestants I know would be horrified at the idiots quoted here, but the fact is that ignoring the Apostles and their clear and God Inspired successors leades to acceptance of such nonsense. This is why divorce, contraception and abortion -- and today sexual deviance celebrated, happens in so many so called "churches".

Many Catholics are in support of abortion.

Apostolic succession hasn't stopped that, and the church does not punish people for believing abortion to be okay.

Yes, I agree that they are backsliding and have been for as long as 30 years or so.

That was around the time that I no longer went to church on Sunday.

But, that is just me. I can justify it in many ways, but church was not helping me to be a better person is the best way I can say it.

The Catholic Church allows divorce. It allows it by ignoring sin, denying the sin and declaring the marriage never happened. They call it annulment.
