The Catholic Church: The Faith of Religious (Bishops, Priests, Et Al) Vs. The Laity
FR thread ^ | 11/ | Pyro7480

There has been a long discussion that I've had between myself and FReeper Zionist Conspirator concerning the faith and conduct of bishops/priests/et al, versus that of the laity within the Catholic Church. Please click on the link above to read this discussion.

If I had to boil down the discussion, it would be about how the Catholic church seemingly issues contradictory statements on issues like evolution and the death penalty, and many Catholics shuns "simple folk" like ZC who don't follow modernist thinking.

Thank you. I probably won't be able to comment further until late tomorrow.

Thanks for the thread.

My apologies for things getting out of hand on the other thread. It's just that the good priest's frustration resonated with me and my Catholic experience and I wanted to voice my support of him. Sorry it went beyond that.
