A friend of mine just returned from overseas from being in the Dominican.

I said something to him about the number of people converting from Catholicism to Evangelical churches and he asked me if I knew why.

What he found out while down there is that the priest abusing parishioners, particularly boys, is so much worse down there than it is here. The people have finally had it with the situation. They are not putting up with it any more and are leaving, voting with their feet as it were.

And they should stop being around bad priests and their covering bishops - the Church would expect that.

But sin follows into protestant charismatic denominations too because we are all weak to sin. The solution is to get mad and throw the bums out and fix the one true Church, not give up on the Eucharist and the Deposit of Faith. Throwing the baby out with the bath water....remember, it’s YOUR baby you are harming and leaving.
