“I’ve lost count over the past few days of the number of women who claim to be Catholics”...
There is going to be a separating of the sheep from the goats.
There are those who “weren’t with us” all along.
Those who have been steadfast all along will grow more so.
Let me just say that whatever one's denomination, faith based systems such as Catholicism are not "menu's" from which to choose.
One either subscribes to, and adhere's to the tenants of one's faith fully, or one stops calling themselves members of that faith.
In my (narrow) mind, it's that simple.
