The story goes that Napoleon basically said to a cardinal, “I shall destroy the church!” The cardinal started snickering and replied, “If we haven’t been able to do it in 1800 years, you’ll never do it.”

“the gates of Hell shall not prevail against it (My Church).” - Mt 16:18

Fulton Sheen knew what was coming and he said it was up to the laity to put the Church in this country back on track. He was absolutely right.

Jumping ship is cowardice in the face of the the enemy. We're not dust in the wind, we're bought with a price and Jesus Christ knows each of us intimately.

Throw the pirates overboard and put out the fires they started, that's the cross we bear.
