The Church will survive the Harold Campings and the various other Paul Crouches that invest this forum (they object to the reference to “snake handlers”, so let’s call ‘em “Harold Campings” from now on, even though those tongue speakers and snake handlers plus the above mentioned, as well as the scandal ridden preacher cousins of Jerry Lee Lewis, are their true theological brethren, and the arguments are between all those semi-literate country bumpkin theologians, and not between them and the Church, which as I said, has survived generations of heretics, ignores them, and will survive them, you just wait and see. Or do you wanna bet?)
The mystery, as always, is how can anyone go on living defining himself or herself in opposition to something else, in this case, opposition to the Catholic Church, obsessing about it, and waging a war against it and its millions of believers the world over on Internet forums. Pathetic.
Wow, you make “coming back home” so compelling. :)
