We didn’t let them drive us from the church either. We just stood and watched as the church drove themselves away from us and millions of others.
They are politically correct. They have their noses in things that they should not. They should be taking care of their own business and not politics. They can say what they want but they are the same as the politicians in DC and...you are right...it is ALL about money!!!
We know what we do and we know how we pray and other things we won’t go into. But...I’m tired of churches looking like auditoriums and singing songs that are foreign to me and changing how we behave at Mass into ways that look like once again foreign to me. Kids acting up, eating, bringing their toys and playing in the pews, adults dressing inappropriately and some wedding photos we have seen where Bride’s dresses are totally inappropriate to stand before a Priest and Congration in God’s own home. So, anyone can talk until they are blue in the face to us and it won’t matter. We have made peace with within and we know in our hearts the church is not what it is supposed to be and we refused to just “go along” for the sake of going to church. It’s awful and hopefully one day will return to what it should be but...until then??? No way.
A question which keeps bothering me about the modern church is are we a religious body united for worship or are we a weekly gathering of amateur social workers? If there is a difference, what is the difference?
