That’s the joy of being a Catholic. It is so rich and there is so much to learn about it.

Rich? You got that right. Wonder how many mouths you could feed with all this?





When Christ finally gave up his soul on the cross, the curtain separating man from the Holy of Holies was torn from top to bottom. This is because the spirit of God has a new temple in the hearts of His elect. The Roman Catholic Church has amassed wealth beyond imagination for what purpose? I wonder how Christ, who had no place to lay his head, would view this kind of "stewardship."

You mistook the word “rich” which I meant in “rich” faith — there are so many facets to Catholicism. Prayers, saints, the celebration of the Mass, Scripture, Tradition — our faith is so rich.

I was not talking about material wealth at all. Please do not try to read my mind again.

Come back and tell me about it once you’ve sold all that you have and have distributed it to the poor. Until then, your hypocrisy reeks.

Wow that crown is magnificent!

That would be an impressive one to "cast down at Jesus' feet" Those jewels must be worth millions.

And the palaces-—well they don't call them that-—are luxury fitting of Kings.

You would think some of that could be converted into help for all the poor suffering people in the world.

For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying,
Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor,
and to thy needy, in thy land. --Deuteronomy 15:11
