If I were not a Catholic, and were looking for the true Church in the world today, I would look for the one Church which did not get along well with the world; in other words, I would look for the Church which the world hates.
    Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt.

    We have endured much ridicule from the proud, much contempt from the arrogant.

If today, God spoke to a Prophet and told him to go to the Pope and declare to him that he has strayed from the path, what would happen?

1. Security Arrests him?
2. Excommunicated?
3. Person disappears? (wouldn’t doubt it)

What would this be? Pride? Righteousness to the point of blindness?

With the current path the Church is on (Example: “Declaring emitting CO2 is a sin” “Social Injustice (anything not Social Justice/therefore anything not Socialism”) http://wbztv.com/watercooler/7.new.deadly.2.673699.html ), does anyone doubt that eventually sodomy will no longer be a sin and anything else if possible as well?

When the church declares the lack of theft of your neighbor’s property a sin, how far away can we be from that day?

The Church is guilty of Pride, the Pride of Dogma that grants them the right to modify and revoke any teaching of Christ including holy scripture.

Reconcile this...but don’t compromise your faith...come to an understanding of the truth

Who were they trying to satisfy by making these declaration of sins? God? Were they trying to guide their flocks that it is OK to vote in order to thieve others property? How does that make them closer to God?
