Will their church collapse ? Will it be rebuilt with only good guys, like the US ?

Really, I don't get your problem with a few traditions in the CC Beliefs are from the Bible and Tradition...not everything was included in the Bible that was written. The council that met to decide on the books to include in the Bible had to pare down the amount of material that had been written since Jesus was on Earth. Translations were not always accurate. Scholars have spent years going thru original writings to find the oldest examples and make good translations so people today can read them. We have no way of knowing what all Jesus taught. No one was taking notes at the time. Stories were passed along orally until they were eventually written dowm.
Actually we have over 5000 manuscripts from the first century.
You may think I hate you, I don't. I'm trying to show you that your traditions will only lead to eternal death. Please use the critical thought and research skills you've learned from Q and educate yourself on the true Gospel in the Bible. Your salvation depends on it. there is no such thing as purgatory and your family can not buy your way into heaven. Please. This is the biggest red pill you can swallow.
I just hope that you can also see that not all Catholics can be lumped into one category. ... I know we don't buy our way to heaven. We are judged on our lives and how true we remain to God. Salvation comes from Baptism and our belief in Jesus resurrection and a life lived on a path to heaven. I don't assume. I know God is love and I try to live by those principles taught to us thru Jesus. Prayers for you and for everyone on the path to understanding.
Do you own a Bible? If not, I would gladly purchase one and send it to you.
Thanks but I have many. My favorite is a study Bible. The explanations are great.
