I still identify as Catholic, but I no longer respect the Catholic Church. While I have always wanted to go back to the pre-Vatican II church, this guy makes me want to leave or overthrow the whole church.
I think a slightly more nuanced adjustment helps …
The Catholic Church, as in the Vatican, is not THE Church.
It is an Organization … a Corporation, and in it’s current form, it’s a Nation State, with it’s own Central Bank and Political Structure masquerading as Holy Men.
What you’re saying is you do not respect the ‘Vatican Corporation’ .. and even pre-Vatican II, it wasn’t as rosy as we think it was.
Totally agree. The Catholic Church had issues before Vatican II, but arguably better than it is now.
Look into Orthodoxy. You will find what you are looking for. And no Pope!!
I have begun to do so and enjoy the Orthodox channel on Gab. When you say Orthodox, are you specifically referencing Eastern or Greek Orthodox or something broader?
I completely agree. Notice how they changed stuff after Vatican II that they didn't have to change (priest facing parish, all prayers in English and dumbed down, etc.) but did nothing when it came to the things that really mattered like allowing priests to marry. My father had a great idea, priests should be chaste until the age of 33, the age Christ died. Then afterward allow them to marry like normal people. That would have reduced the number of gays and increased the number of normal men that had first hand experience with issues of marriage, raising children, etc. making them more relatable to the congregation.
