So they want to invigorate the faith by changing it into another faith, essentially. Rather Orwellian but that’s what we expect from lefties.

I think Islam will take over Latin America within 50 years.

I was raised Catholic in the era of post-war Catholic triumphalism which ended in the wake of Vatican II. In about 10 years or less, we went from Bishop Sheen to the Berrigans. A malaise, a lack of conviction, set in which continues to this day. Protestant evangelicalism still has zeal for the faith, whereas mainstream (Biden/Pelosi) Catholicism and liberal Protestantism are characterized by capitulation to secular mores.

It still begs the question, who forced Pope Benedict XVI out? It was unprecedented, and glossed over faster than a Vatican rag.

I will pay as much attention to your opinions as to those of any raving lunatic.

I’m grateful for every soul that turns from any useless religion of works to salvation in Christ by faith.

Why should they leave the one true faith for the heresy of mad Marty?

I pray for those same souls you are “grateful” for.

They should go to saving faith in Christ. Salvation is found in no other person, nor church.

Rather, you should pray for your own soul, since you’ve said you are not saved.
Those who’ve come to saving faith in Christ are right where God wants them for eternity.

I have been to Latin America. Catholicism didn’t have far it could decline. Pretty much has been at rock bottom for a while.
