And we wonder why there are less and less people showing up to Catholic Mass. The church is half full on Sunday.

Maybe this is all part of the plan to turn people away from God and the church of St Peter.

I can see it as a move to turn people away from God.

What I have seen happen too often is that people rightly reject the wrongs and abuses by a church, any church of any denomination, and with it, they turn their backs on God as well.

People have a tendency to conflate religion with God and end up throwing the baby out with the bathwater. They reject God when He is not responsible for people’s bad choices and behaviors.
