This catholic stuff is just so bogus, I’m sorry, but why the need for a hokey religion, stick with the facts and keep all the mysticism out of it, no wonder folks are leaving in droves, the Main things are the Plain things. Christ died on the cross for our sins, you accept it or reject it. Why do you chase after dragons?
First, I am not Catholic. And second, the Catholic Church may be mystical in some ways, but it is very "scientific" and skeptical when it comes to the Bible. Shame on them.
