You cab leave the Roman sect and still be part of the Church. More fully a part as you are no longer supporting the organized crime racket and sex ring the Vatican has become

There is nothing in the world that would make me want to leave the blessed Sacraments by which I can live so intimately through Him, and with Him, and in Him --- and He in me.

There is nothing in the world that would make me want to break communion with all the other faithful members of this Church:

... with Peter and Paul, with Monica and Augustine, Athanasius-contra-Mundum, Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Siena, the 40 English martyrs, especially Thomas More, Edmund Campion and Margaret Clitherow, Charles de Foucauld, my dear Dorothy Day and my dear Elizabeth Anscombe, Mother Teresa of Calcutta ---

thousands and thousand were faithful to the Church under MUCH harder conditions, and I should abandon my post just at the very moment when the wolves have got inside the sheepfold and are attacking the flock?

Jesus says those that leave and let the sheep be scattered are hirelings, not true shepherds.

Leave? Now? Really? We have not yet resisted unto the shedding of our blood.

Leave? No. Christ said He would not leave the Church.

He loves the Church. He will rescue the Church. He always has. When He is rushing towards us, should I rush away?

Besides, what you call the "Roman sect" is not a sect. It is the church cata-holos: Catholic, as a whole.

Did you flee and abandon the USA when the wicked, evil, disgraceful Barack Obama was temporarily in charge of the highest office in the land?
