Hey tonto, my “idol

Is evidently your church, for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh, and your speech indicates your church is your real source of security, and object of affection and allegiance and if it were Christ. You thus have zero fellowship with those who were manifestly born of the Spirit, but attack them because they do not bow to Rome.

But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now. (Galatians 4:29)

I will leave you to your delusions.

The Church is the body of Christ, with Christ as its head. The rest of your post is, as usual, (delusional) nonsense.

Any person that turned their back on Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Turned their back on the sacraments, and thinks “me and Jesus got a good thing going, I don’t need no stinkin’ church to me what’s it’s all about”, is the delusional one.

Protestants come into the Catholic Church after careful study and contemplation. They feel God calling them home to the fullness of the faith. People that leave the Catholic Church, for any protestant denomination, were never devoted to the Catholic faith to start with and most leave the Catholic Church because they don’t like the all the moral conditions the Catholic Church placees on people. It is not easy being a Catholic. 2,000 years ago Jesus said if he was despised his followers would also be despised. He said if they hate you they hated Him first.

Catholicism is not for sissies. It takes a devoted man or woman to be a devout Catholic and some people just don’t have what it takes. They want to live their way and not God’s way. How many times have I heard a lapsed Catholic say “no church is going toe me what to do”. Hundreds. As in all fallen away Catholics. Different day,same story.
