Many members of the Catholic Church and many of the clergy are in a state of mortal sin or outright apostasy, but the Church is not. Huge difference. This means that the majority of parishioners can still be guided down the true path.

Many members of the Catholic Church and many of the clergy are in a state of mortal sin or outright apostasy, but the Church is not.

But what is the church without its members?

There is NOTHING.

And yes, the church is because it has yet to deal decisively with those in gross sin.

The fact that they still serve communion to pro-abortion and pro-homosexual marriage politicians, demonstrates beyond a shadow of doubt that the apostasy has sunk in and sunk in deeply.

The church's refusal to take the stand is should is nothing more than approval and condoning the behavior.

It's failure to act IS action and the RCC is demonstrating by what it's doing, or rather not doing, where it REALLY stands, all the words it utters to the contrary.
