“Until the church starts kicking out some politicians I find no reason to be in the pew.”

I never left the church - the church left me.

Go back to the principals and teachings that were followed when I was growing up in the 50’s and 60’s and I will be there. Unfortunately, sometime starting in the late 1960’s the Church was hijacked by some kind of ultra liberal nincompoops. As the Church lurched to the left, I chose not to go. And have no regrets. In fact, I would honestly say I barely know the organization that today claims to be the Catholic Church.

I couldn't agree more.
A good first step toward reconciliation would be to excommunicate the pro-abortion politicians like Pelosi and Cuomo - publicly and with great fanfare.
A second step would be to stop telling me that I (America) have to accept and take care of the pooooor illegal aliens.
Good things come in threes so - kick the pedophile/homo priests out into the gutter.
Go in peace ... my rant has ended.

Yes, I'm afraid that's part of the plan: infiltrate academia, both major political parties, unions and the churches. They've succeeded.

In my opinion—— for what it’s worth-——is that there has been a decades long organized plan to disrupt and conquer institutions such as the Catholic Church and others. I believe that the Marxist faggot element has particularly targeted the seminaries and act as gatekeepers to repel as many straight honest applicants as possible. Over the years they have gradually increased their numbers and risen in rank in the Church hierarchy gaining more and more power.

I read a story over 30 years ago by a Catholic trying to sound the alarm over this insidious invasion. When mentioning to it to Catholics-— and even non-Catholics-—I felt like I was in a lone B-17 over 1943 Berlin.

The Church did not leave you. Christ is still waiting for you. Call a priest and arrange a time to sit down with him and get your questions answered.

YOU are the one with the free will.

And the very defenders of the Roman Catholic church, the Jesuits led that charge to the hard left. I went to a Jesuit University “known” to be conservative and found the opposite.
