"We" have the buildings, the tax exemptions, the constant fund raisers, the banquets, the nonsense....
In southern Sudan, African Catholics gather with a priest for Mass in the remains of a burned out church for Mass. No roof, no windows, no Stations, no statues.... yet the beauty of this seemingly pathetic scene is startling.
THEY HAVE THE FAITH

This is Faith, this is the Church, Our Blessed Lord is present. May we come to have this same Faith.
The Church is doing very well....just not in North America and western Europe.

We believe in a good argument. That means NO ad hominem attacks. This also includes Pope Francis. Further, referring to him by any other name, may or may not indicate a schismatic attitude, and given the confusion in the Church your comment will NOT be published. Comments are those of the commentators and not those of this blog. You may use a pseudonym... we do... Behave like a guest in our living room and you will be fine.
