What version are you reading from?

Now this is a parable and the word used is tares not "weeds".

Do a check out of what the word means.

Christ taught the multitude in parables however, he explained them to disciples.

Also we are suppose to know who the "tares" are but are told to leave them alone, the reapers are angles and they will gather them, at the end of this flesh age.

Christ fully explains the parable starting in verse 37 of Matthew 13.

So while this might sound good to apply to pervert priest it is not talking about them specifically.

Uprooting pervert priests is exactly what Christ would do.

"What version are you reading from?"

I am using the New American Bible version.

"Christ fully explains the parable starting in verse 37 of Matthew 13."

Exactly. The church is a part of this world. What I want to stress is that not all members in Christ’s church are good and righteous ( I used the word “perfect” in my previous threat.)

”Uprooting pervert priests is exactly what Christ would do.”

I agree with you and believe that is exactly what the catholic church is now doing. I have trust in Christ that He will clean up His church one way or the others, sooner or later. At least the catholic church does not yield to social pressure or covers up the issue by affirming the “homosexual acts” to be acceptable just as the other Christian churches do.

Excuse! Help! Excuse! Help Excuse!
The dead line of my work is this coming Friday and I can’t reply anymore. Please help, any Catholic out there like TheCrusader and I will appreciate it very much
