As a former Catholic, I just wonder:
What if Satan's greatest plan and victory were to take control of the Earthly institution called a "Church" and install a true antichrist as its leader?
How bad would it have to become before the people would no longer call the political/economic structure "the Church" and start recognizing to accumulated body of people who truly believed in Christ's actual teachings "the Church" ?

Is there a definite theological answer to that?

We don’t get that at mass but, we hear the “immigrant” thing every once in a while. Which gets a big sigh and eye roll from me so everyone around knows what I am thinking. Then my wife grabs my leg like my dad did while mis-behaving in the pews as a kid.

I came to listen about God and Jesus not MSNBC talking points.

I think Martian Luther had an answer. How definite it was is up to you to decide.

No no no, you need a bunch of sexually repressed men to tell you what God wants you to do / think / etc.

Organized religion is populated with humans and the foibles that are associated with them.
This socialist agenda must be stopped and ironically enough, for the very reasons they are selling it on.

Right on, brother Snapping Twig.



"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible."
-- Justice Janice Rogers Brown
