I used to spend more time arguing such issues, but now I see that it's hard enough to become a saint without taking on the Church's problems as well. Perhaps single people have the time for it -- I just know that I don't.
Thank you for your magnanimity and patience with a poor idiot. :wave: Please see the other thread I started, which I somehow did not see anywhere before, wherein I publicly apologize to you.
As for the above, I certainly understand. However, the central point is that one cannot work out one's salvation very well when one cannot even establish, or reasonably explain to themselves or others, the identity of Holy Church. It is IMPOSSIBLE to do as Benedict does, or even do as he says, making it IMPOSSIBLE for him to be Christ's vicar. This demonstrable fact,
accepted implicitly by all who resist the V2 Pontiffs and their bogus religion, cannot be swept aside nonchalantly - duties or no duties. God speed.
