You know what, cronos, you might just as well admit what is plain for the rest of us to see.
No amount of blame shifting and finger pointing can change the stats about Catholics.
There is a problem that is endemic in the Catholics church and has been for YEARS, and it seems that everyone can see it but the Catholics. They are in deep denial of the problem and until the man up and admit to the problem and either the church does something about it, or the congregants man up and demand that the church address the issue, it isn’t going to be going away.
It’s only going to get worse the longer it goes unaddressed.
And attacking others while defending Rome here has worked to expose her.
No blame shifting — 9 million Evangelicals and 21 million Protestants/Other Christians voted for Obama in this election - as bad as the 14 million Catholics who did.
