Reading the news of the Catholic church is like watching a train wreck in slow motion.
For all the criticism non-Catholics get over doctrine and theology, is there ANY good news coming out of the Vatican and Catholicism any more?
The Catholic church is in actuality in worse shape than the Prot denominations Catholics regularly rail against.
By far.
Actions speak louder than words and making claims to the church’s *official position* is meaningless hot air without action backing up their claims.
Catholics can brag up their church’s *official* position on any number of issues and yet in practice, the church is what my daughter refers to as a *dumpster fire*.
It’s an absolute, unmitigated disaster.
Catholics keep claiming that Jesus and God will judge people on their works and then ignore the works of their church and appeal to the words of the church. Then they expect us to ignore the works and focus on the words.
Now come on metmom, there must be lots of great news!
Gays at the Vatican are celebrating with wild, drug-fueled sex parties.
Indeed.
I feel for the Roman Catholics. They have been taught that their church holds a position of authority equal to that
of Scripture, and now see the leadership descending into worse and worse heresy. It must be very disconcerting that an institution you have trusted is visibly failing you. Fortunately if you call upon Christ, He will never fail you.
Everything else will disappoint but He never will.
