If the Catholic church had properly addressed the issue and dealt with the abusive priests, the DA would not have had the opportunity to fail to protect the victims.

The Catholic church already failed to protect the victims. They beat the DA to it.

Your post is so full of inaccuracies on Reformed church polity that, well, you really have no idea what you are talking about.

It'd be nice if the Catholics would be honest and admit that the alleged cleaning up filth isn't happening.

It would be nice if the protestants would be honest.

Your post is impossible to reconcile with reality.

Whatever stones you cast at society can be cast at your own church until and unless it takes determined and decisive action in regard to the moral problems of its priests.

Well guess what, Sparky?

The Church has and continues to take such action.

That protestants can't or won't see it, or that protestants don't agree with some of the actions is simply NOT OUR PROBLEM. It's yours. Fix it.

Good day.

Sure, taking action when forced to.

If they’re doing such a bang up job of taking care of it, why does it take lawsuits to get them to take action?

Very spiritually deadly.

ONCE AGAIN,
just a small part of
THE EVIDENCE: .

Here's the title:

2. Official approval, especially of an artistic work.

WITH RICHARD CARDINAL CUSHING’S IMPRIMATUR

Let me track down the brief portion of quotes upthread . . .

Here they are:

However, as we've seen through a variety of sources--a pile of them in Ferraro's manual about the Rosary--the Roman Catholic et al/Vatican Edifice disagrees with a lot of the claims of RC's hereon to the contrary.

p.32
.
[Quixicated emphases below]
Mary is crowned Queen of heaven and earth, dispenser of all graces . . .

p32
4 - She became Queen of Purgatory, where she exercises her power as mediatrix in behalf of these suffering souls.

5 - She became Queen of us sinners, to assist us through the dangers of this life and to help us in difficulties.

6 - She became the ruler of hell, that trembles at her slightest gaze and is defeated by her power.

"Just as a rock extracted from earth will precipitate into the abyss, so will man, left without Mary's help, quickly slide toward hell." --Richard of St Victor

p37
Sacred Heart of Jesus, Thy kingdom come; Thy kingdom come through Mary! --Partial Indulgence

p41
"Mary is the tree of life to those who grasp her, and he is happy who hold her fast." --Prov. 3:18

p43
1 - "Hail Mary, beloved daughter of the Father, Mother of the Divine Son, Spouse of the Holy Spirit, complement of the most august Trinity!"

p45
6 - To her was granted grace greater than that conferred upon all others, 'that she might vanquish sin in every respect.'
.
[Qx: I guess Christ's vanquishing sin was unnecessary--or ineffectual without Mary's assistance?]

p46
7 - "Mary is the dawn of God because, just as the dawn marks the end of darkness and the beginning of day, so Mary indicates the end of vices and the beginning of virtue."
.
[Qx: I guess Christ's conquering on The Cross and HIS conquering trip to hell were unncessary?]

9 - God loved Mary so much that He gave her the keys to His heart. 'No one can go to God without Mary drawing him.'
.
[Qx: I guess Holy Spirit has been relegated to a 'Walter Mitty' role as spouse of Mary? That's SOME POWER to cancel & take over HOLY SPIRIT'S role to draw men to God!]

p47
4 - "Mary, trusting in the word of the angel, destroyed the sin Eve committed by trusting in the serpent.'
.
[Qx: Evidently, she beat Christ to the job of vanquishing sin!]

5 - "She desired the safety of everyone, went in search of it, and obtained it; it was also through her that this salvation was wrought."
.
[QX: What an unnecessary waste of precious Blood and suffering on THE CROSS!!!/sar]

p47
10 - "As Noah's Ark saved all the animals that entered it, so Mary saves all the souls that entrust themselves to her care."

p50
8 - "If she were not so holy as she is, how could God appoint her to be the ladder of Paradise, the advocate of the world, meatrix between HIm and us?"

p50
4 - "By becoming Mother of God, Mary belongs to the order of hypostatic union; hence she participates IN the infinite sanctity of God."

The following is more than disturbing . . .

but a good insight into the evil globalist elite and their values:

LIBERAL ELITE PERFORM MASS CHILD RAPE [for 80 years!]

http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread647210/pg1

I increasingly believe that the Vatican Alice In Wonderland School of Theology and Reality Mangling sex hideousness is but another clue

that the Vatican AIWSOTARM

HAS been very well infiltrated by said globalist elite and their values.

Sad. Beyond sad.

I realize that the

perspective of the

Vatican Alice In Wonderland School Of Theology and Reality Mangling

distorts reality persistently.

That’s just good observation on the part of Proddys.

Sometimes, I go by Proverbs 26:5

Sometimes, I go by Proverbs 26:4

I think it's time for me to follow the God-given advice in verse 4.

I wish you a splendid day.

I found this one sentence of a reply quite revealing.

“The only thing these schools really teach is that the rich rule, you can literally do whatever you want as long as you have the hush money to back it up. “

Does this not sound like OUR ruling elite bankters class??
Does to me!

File for bankruptcy???? I thought they were "one Church"? What happen to being in full communion with Rome? Won't Rome cover their expenses?

I guess it's just a matter of which side of your mouth you're talking from.
