Probably not, but you can be sure he will be spewing all manner of left wing nonsense and idealogy that is an insult to the Catholic faith. Most likely he’ll get a standing ovation. One of the many reasons I left the Cathoilic Church after 35 years and 16 years of Catholic schooling. I didn’t find Christ there.

Why leave the Church due the all-to-human shortcomings of her leaders? Didn’t Our Lord predict as such? Christ was there all the time, but you’ll set yourself up for constant disappointment if you depend on the hierarchy for that presence.

You obviously were looking for something besides Christ and by leaving only ended up committing spiritual suicide. That's a shame.

Please consider your return to the Church that Christ founded. You owe that to yourself.

Meanwhile, Catholic Colleges and Universities that go against the grain and invite or reward individuals who are clearly against accepted norms and policies will see their donations plummet. They will get the message loud and clear.

you didn’t look hard enough....Christ is within you, the Catholic Church is merely where He semt you to accept Him....go back to the church and this time, don’t expect them to shove Jesus down your throat, expect them to provide you with the ONLY true passage to Him.... He said, I will be with you from now ‘till the end of time......he wasn’t kidding....Welcome home!!!
