I grew up with Catholic family members. My dad’s 2nd family was Polish Catholic. I planned to be a priest.
I know whereof I speak.
Of course there was a remnant who did not followmRome’s every whim of opinion. Your family was one of the non-sheep families, but you must admit that there were far more who were sheep.
I admit none of that. If your family were sheep that was simply your family.
I’m sure very few Catholics will be listening to the moronic ramblings of this dull-witted Pope when he tells us to recycle our plastic bags.
