"Why not allow people to speak..."

The problem non-Catholics have with the Church isn't censorship, it is the Church not allowing just anyone to speak for the Church. Imagine if we did, we would have more than 33,000 official versions of the Catechism and rampant parish shopping.

Its funny that all of those folks who have at least four Protestant churches (the church I used to attend, the church I'm attending now, the church we are checking out, and that other church I won't set foot in again) all poll as Protestant in all of the surveys we see referenced here and all profess lockstep unanimity on doctrinal issues in this forum.

Peace be with you.

Very true,dear brother.The cafeteria Catholics also seem to think they can speak for the Church as well but thankfully we have a very Blessed Holy Father in Pope Benedict XVI to shut them down openly in public which gives them a chance to repent and change to conform to the teachings of Holy Mother Church.
