Serious question to Catholics, when is it time to leave the church? When you have a Pope like this who is a hardcore Marxist, how do you stay in the church?
Hippy on NBC reporting very thing I’ve been saying for years. The political divide in the US is between normal rural folks and the big city filth.
Newt up now.

That is indeed a very good question - The Church has gone through periods like this in the past.
All I can do is pray - for whatever it is work. - Even Christ on the cross cried out - Father why have you forsaken me
Serious answer Bray. I stay Catholic for the same reason I stay American. Things come and go and I am loyal, probably to a fault, to beliefs I have pondered over many years and no other church or country comes close to what I already have and am. I respect the religious choices of others in large part because I see the enormity of divergence in practice and interpretation in established denominations and the thousands of churches peopled by humans who have varying views and beliefs about God and how to worship Him and how He wants them to live this life He has given us. I remind myself that I came into this world a single individual and will depart the same way. I will be responsible to God for how I have lived and not for how others think I should. Whatever religious faith any of us has needs nurturing in whatever way we can and your articles on FR are quite helpful in that regard and I appreciate your offering them each week.
