I want to add a post script to my earlier comment.

There are many Catholics who really care about the poor. The Sisters of Mercy who have worked tirelessly to provide medical care. The many sister who taught school for decades who were paid practically nothing by the local bishop and who are now destitute and relying on charity of other religious orders for their care.

OTOH there are the lawyers who have made millions defending the church in endless litigation over child abuse.

Redistribution of money from the poor to lawyers.

Thanks for the update, I agree.

It’s the “little people”—not a derogatory term—prayer warriors and other “helps” ministries that are doing the work of God.

The leaders are just that...leaders dressed in finery like the Pharisees of Biblical days.
