The Church talks a good talk, but the walk doesn’t line up. They can have it both ways, appeasing the moral with their talk, and the immoral with their walk. It is the walk that is really the telling part, though.

All the Church ever claimed to do was talk the talk. That’s her job. That’s her unique charism. There have been plenty of horrifically evil popes; that none actually has ever taught false doctrine only testifies to the supernatural character of the church.

But when 41% of Americans don’t know who Joe Biden is, exactly how do you expect 500 Italian priests to all know him by sight. You see the picture I uploaded; you can see how he could go from one to another until he found someone who didn’t look at him funny. And for that matter, not one person has produced any evidence that Biden actually received communion. All we have is his assertion. Period.

Meanwhile, Protestants universally welcome to their churches anyone from any denomination, so it seems a little strange to hear all these Protestants acting so outraged. The Southern Rite freemasons perform black masses. Ever hear of one of them being denied membership in a Protestant church Ever? Oh, Hell no; in the old days all them good ol’ boy pastors WERE freemasons! How about the Bohemian Grove politicians?

“The [Catholic] Church is intolerant in principle because she believes; she is tolerant in practice because she loves. Her enemies are tolerant in principle because they do not believe. They are intolerant in practice because they do not love.”
