Other things in her lifestyle would also seem to point to those being reasons why she has left the church.

Same reason I left, they refused to do anything about their pedophile priest problem and made it worse by shifting them around to endanger more children.

Point out to me what was wrong in her statement? The Catholic church has been knowingly shuffling and keeping in the dark a huge amount of homosexuality within its ranks.......The current pope is not a God fearing man by any means....MONEY has allowed sin to reign in the whole body of the Catholic church...I like this woman.

Went to Catholic school until third grade. Fell away from the church when I went into the Navy. Was Anglican when my late wife worshiped that. Went back to the Catholic church a couple of years ago after 40 years. Ana now I stopped doing that. What’s important to me is between me and God. And will remain so.

Stupid. Scandalous. Tge bishops are human. The priests are a mighty get for the enemy. Of course it will go after them. It tempted Jesus himself.

The church is the magesterium, tradition and the Catechism. It was Founded by Jesus. One of His apostles betrayed Him another denied Him. He knew people would always have to fight temptation even and especially clergy

Get the sacraments, find some fellowship and forget it.

Marjorie Taylor Greene, you are still a Catholic and always will be a Catholic, even though you might be an inactive one.

Please pray to the Holy Spirit and your Guardian Angel for true guidance back to the church. All you need to do is sit down and talk with a priest.

“Just so we’re clear, bishops, when I said ‘controlled by Satan,’ I wasn’t talking about the Catholic Church. I was talking about you.”

Knocked...Him...Out!

The problem with the bishops is not that they’re personally evil (or at least most of them), but that they’re wusses and organizational men. They just do whatever the boss says, and in this case it’s a bad top boss (the Pope) and bad second tier bosses (most of the Cardinals and Archbishops).

They’ll kowtow to any power, religious or secular (i.e., the Democratic Party).

Cowardice and being willing to go along to get along seem to be the main requirements for being a bishop nowadays. And that’s very disillusioning.

With the communist currently posing as “pope,” who could blame her or anyone else for leaving that church?

I don’t blame her one bit. My mother tried to shove catholicism down our throats, but not a single one of us bought into it. The sordid history of the church shows it didn’t take Satan long at all to corrupt it and own it.

“I Was Raised Catholic but Wicked Bishops Have Driven Me Away from the Church”

Doesn’t understand, never understood the Holy Eucharist. Like many here.

She also kids herself, like many here, if she thinks the percentage of priests who abused young people, about 4%, is any lower in other Christian churches.

Pedophilia denotes the abuse of very young children of both sexes. The Catholic Church problem was 79% priests and males between 11-16. This is homosexual predation, not pedophilia. Many here play the media’s game of saying it’s pedophilia which distracts away from the fact that homosexuality was the predominant problem among abusive priests.

I’ve known SO MANY holy priests. Probably leading more chaste lives than many condemning them here. How absurd the tunnel vision that most priests are child molesters. Media brainwashing.

I don’t understand why it’s “THE church”.

It’s “A church” or “a denomination”.

“THE church” — consists of all born-again Christians, no matter what denomination. Some Catholics are in THE church; some aren’t. Just as some Methodists are in THE church and some aren’t. What decisions a person has made for Christ determines whether or not they’re part of the Body Of Christ, THE Church.

Also, some Catholic leaders are pedophiles, and some non-Catholic leaders are pedophiles. The problem is that TPTB with Catholics mostly don’t deal with the problem, but shuffle them off to some other unsuspecting church.

She’s right, too many homosexual Bishops and very little internal accountability for decades. Perhaps the biggest malpractice of religion of our time.

Who was it that said, “The streets of Hell are paved with the skulls of bishops.”?

I was driven out by the lies of our local diocese....they talked about the priest situation and they just wanted to settle....no trials, no nothing...just give away church money....

we were promised that the individual parishes would not be affected since they're "individual"....

all lies...as soon as they could the diocese slapped bills on each parish that they had to raise no matter if it meant selling property....

so here we are....our "leaders" have left us high and dry.
