Hi frens...I’ve been an active poster over in PW since the Donald days...but I feel like this post is more suited for the GaW crowd....I wonder if there are any other Catholics that can empathize with how I’m feeling right now, and can maybe offer some guidance... I was born and raised Catholic, and still practice—in fact, have been incredibly involved with the music ministry in my church for over a decade...it’s something that gives me great joy and peace to share with my parish family. But each day, I see more and more diocese announcing vax mandates with NO religious exemptions, and my heart just breaks. I find myself thinking that I might leave the only church I ever knew over this—and it’s really the only constant thing that I’ve had in my 41 years of life, so it’s a terrifying thought. But, how can entire dioceses turn their backs on, and abandon a central tenant of our faith SO easily, and so callously? If they can, it just doesn’t seem like it’s the right faith for me. For other Christian anons out there—maybe even some ex-Catholics—did you find a new faith home in a certain denomination, or did you feel most comfortable in a non-denominational setting? I’m not sure where to even begin to look. 😢
Thanks for reading, my friends ❤️
Hello,
I am a fairly recent convert to the Catholic faith. I went from a life of drugs, and parties, hopelessness, and pain to a fully fulfilled life. My life changed when I finally turned to God and became apart of the one true faith. I have been Catholic for about 4 years now and I can say with confidence that I will die as a Catholic, but heed my words here DO NOT ABANDON THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST.
I understand what you are feeling, I understand the leadership within the Church is horrible. Many priests who are speaking the truth are being silenced or being forced to resign. The Vatican has fallen in line with the satanic elite that is hell bent on destroying all that we hold dear. I have to remind you though, the evil men that have taken hold of the Church, are not a reflection of doctrine and the Churches teachings. In times of peril we are taught to cling to tradition, this is why Jesus left us his teaches and also why God left us a bible to cling too. There is so much history and teachings you could learn to bolster your faith. How often do you spend listening to teachings/Church interpretations/sermons? It sounds like you need to listen to or read more because you shouldn't be shaken so easily. This is not what God wants of us.
I have personally been kicked out of my local Churches for not complying with the masks, the social distancing, everything. I was extremely hurt by that but God opened the door and allowed me to find refuge in Churches that provide the Byzantine/Latin rite. I also believe that our current pope and his loyalists are traitors and is no better than any of the scum that wants to wage war with God. This is why they are hell bent on destroying the Latin rite which has been the tradition for thousands of years up to about 1967. Don't wavier, this is the time to learn not to dread. I have posted some channels for you to check out, learn a lot more about our faith before abandoning it, it is truly something special.

Learn the difference between the vision the modernists want and compare it to the vision of the traditionalists. You have come so far, do not be fooled into running now.
God bless and long live Christ the King.
