" Peter Novak has failed Caltholism all his life"
Failed Christianity in general. That's why these churches like the United Church where they have practicing gay "ministers" is a risk to your spiritual wellness. They can't have the power to help anyone repent and have their sins forgiven through the power of the church, because they refuse to repent themselves. God's laws can't be changed by any church or Pope.
