It is a flock of sheep and lambs, not a scattering of self-indulgent cats.

Take a drive through Liberty County, Texas, northeast of Houston. The number of one-off single church denominations is astounding. Plenty of self-indulgent cats out there thanks to that renegade monk.

And what distinguishes the Catholic Church from a self indulgent cat? Its telling its believers to practice a discipline which isn't supported by Scripture, its telling its believers to practice something that says the opposite.

There are large flocks and small flocks. Some flocks are hale and hearty, watched over by vigilant and faithful shepherds. Others are dwindling in apostasy and unbelief as wolves make incursions freely through them, slaughtering at will because there is no shepherd. Other flocks are preyed upon by the shepherds themselves that should have protected them.
