I'm Catholic. And I believe the church has lost it's way. He is becomming an enforcer for the church. I'm in crisis. My Pope is John 23rd. Who welcomed all. Ratzinger is more like the GOP.

That guy really pissed me off. At least that parish should lose their tax exempt status. punkin87 Apr 2012 #1
