Hmmm ...so ...(correct me if I'm wrong) these judas-priest traitor-bishops are wrong for abandoning Catholicism, so you're going to make things a bit better by ... also abandoning Catholicism?

Are you a good Catholic? If so, would you be improving the Church by leaving?

Are you Confirmed? Do you realize that was to make you a Miles Christi (Soldier of Christ)? Would it be a winning strategy to throw away the grace of the Sacrament by going AWOL by abandoning your post?

Perhaps I have misjudged you? I do hope I've misjudged you. Please correct me --- hoping to hear from you.

This is exactly my feeling. Given the current climate, we can not simply capitulate and disappear. We are called to hold fast and fight.
