He hasn’t repented to this day.

Let him repent behind bars. If Bergoglio won’t lock him up, the state should.

I’m cool with that. But do we know this happened? The 70’s? I think some are in for the payout they get from the diocese.

That's just silly. We're judged on what WE do, not on what others do. I didn't pick McCarrick, I don't agree with him, he's not even my bishop, and never was. He will have precisely nothing to do with my particular judgement.

MY sins that I did with MY will and MY mind and MY body will have EVERYTHING to do with it. When you try to pretend that God judges people by the distance they put between themselves and sinners, instead of on their own deeds, you teach the same false doctrine the Pharisees did.

That’s awesome. So you mean that we don’t have to be a RC in order to be saved. That there is salvation outside the catechism, doctrines, traditions of the RCC. That they are not what is necessary for salvation, but the sins of man is what God judges. That a Roman Catholic can join a Baptist Church or any denomination of their choice and they are saved.
Because it doesn’t matter what the church’s beliefs and doctrines are, it only matters what my beliefs are.

So why do you stay a RC? Why not join a Jehovah’s Witness Church so you can participate in their traditions and doctrines.

I’ll tell you why. Because you don’t believe what you told me. You would not DARE to put your name on another religion’s member roster. Your beliefs, will, mind and body are completely tied into the RCC. And you KNOW you believe that God judges people precisely by who or which congregation they belong to, profess. Otherwise, you would not be forever joined by the doctrines and traditions of the Roman Catholic Church. At least be honest about it. You just look silly
