Clergy are religious lawyers..

Whether or not the Clergy are described as a form of “lawyer,” one of the chief issues with Protestantism is that the Protestant movement and the Protestant bibles (especially the KJV) lessen the role of the Priest by eliminating him as a necessary conduit between a Christian and Christ.

That is a driving issue IMO.

Kindly show me the exact verse in the Bible that says that a Priest is the necessary conduit to Christ.

---------------------------------------

Many "churchs" are in fact "Cargo Cults"....
where the witch doctor drives the issue(s)...

All issues stemming from the "vehicle".. i.e. church.
Whether it's so-called (1)protestant or (2)orthodox(catholic)..
Rarely does the cargo come into dispute.. but it does between "1" and "2"...

then you got yer (3)fringe cults.. with more bazaar cargoes..
Who ex-communicates?.... the witch doctors.. i.e. 1,2,3..

Christianity seems to have become a Donkey Rodeo..
with clowns and everything.. very Entertaining..

GOD is a doofus called in to aid the witch doctor
you know......... with the vehicle.. as Sky Mechanic..
Tribal members are passengers in the vehicle.. most in coach.. with a few first class riders..

Are there Stewards and Stewardesses... absolutely..
Catholics call then Nuns and Priests... others use other terms..

After all they all have a right to be primitives...
with bazaar approaches to godliness.. God bless them..
I don't see it as cute.... but some do..

**Note: must be being human is about proving what bull sperm you'll fall for.. a divine comedy.. a Test!.. It's rare to find a cult tribal member courageous enough to Admit it.. They mostly laugh at overt cargo cultists and refuse to see their own covert attempts at vehicle maintenance..
