Yes, you did read that sentence right, but I think you misunderstood or misinterpreted much else that I said. You took my point about the Church changing its rules out of context. Are most priests telling their parishioners, from the altar, that they should not receive Communion if they have missed Mass, haven't confessed their sins at least once a year, cheat on their spouse, etc, etc? If not, why not?

If the Church believes their teachings are correct, it seems logical that it should be doing more to enforce them. And yes, I have the right to express that opinion---just as you did as in "...find themselves another faith...".

Changes in some laws have certainly been discussed, even by priests and bishops. I doubt if anyone (I included) has suggested that every teaching should be abandoned! I hope you realize that you jump to your own thoughtless conclusions.

I never said I want the Church to "say murder is OK." Nor did I even intimate that it should condone homosexual marriage. Where do you come up with this stuff?

If a Catholic can not abide by each and every teaching of the Catholic Church they need to find a protestant faith that suits them.
