If He was revered as a Apostle, this would make sense to me
But many (most) Catholics I’ve known
widely disregard His Teachings and Leadership
Stepping away from
The Clear Teachings of the Scriptures,
The Clear Tradition of the Catholic Church, and the
The Clear Messages from the Pope
On issues such as Homosexuality, Abortion, Sanctity of Life
When it is "Inconvenient"
It is so confusing to this limited mind
It’s confusing to me, too. When I was a drifting Protestant - my “existentialist period” - I discovered Pope John Paul II, and said, “I want to be like him.” It took a while to process through the bureacracy - our daughter was a Catholic before my husband and I were - but now I have JP2 and so many more right with me all the time.
