Rogue monks tacking theses onto church doors didn't solve the problem of corrupt churchmen in 1517, and it won't solve the problem today.

So just what WOULD solve the problem?

Seems like the Catholic church is having a bit of trouble trying to figure out just what the answer is.

Maybe Churches (of all stripes) might try actually teaching their historic beliefs, standing for Christ against the depravity of the popular culture?

You think, maybe, that would help?

Instead, we have a Pope who kissed a queeran. Once. Decades ago. Which apparently prevents some folks from seeing anything else.

We have lesbian Lutheran bishops. Seriously ... that's wrong on several levels. Luther had a vision for the Church. THIS IS NOT IT.

We have the protestant "Episcopal Church" promulgating a formal ceremony for sodomite unions. The English Reformers had a vision for the Church. THIS IS NOT IT.

And we have the ongoing bizarre "Synod on the Family" which is bringing all manner of things, good and bad, out of the woodwork.

And what, pray tell, is YOUR church (whatever it may be) doing to solve the problem?
