A church is analogous to a hospital ship.

No. It’s a lighthouse, shining the light of eternal truth to guide man through the darkness.

That was covered above on the battleship:
**Does the ship have adequate first aid and medical help?**

Covered with these words:
**Our weapons are the Word of God, the teachings of the Church, the Sacraments, and prayer.**
Think about the saints with that description of duty weapons.

12:
I turned around to see the voice that was speaking to me. “And when I turned I saw seven golden lampstands, 13 and among the lampstands was someone like a son of man, dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 The hair on his head was white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15 His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16In his right hand he held seven stars, and coming out of his mouth was a sharp, double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance.”
_Revelation 1
I love that image!

Misleading title, I thought you were talking about the true church, the body of Christ, not some organization.

Just as an aside, is anyone else as annoyed as I am when the mainstream press refers to any warship as a “battleship”? I’ve seen the term used to describe ships as small as frigates.

It’s a mixed bag. There are those in hit who are battleships, those who are cruise ship and those who are tramp steamers.

Actually, the post-vatican 2 ship is the Titanic.
