You’re absolutely right, I believe many in the Catholic Church are vain, and many worship Mary. Many praise her and worship images and sculptures like she is God. I believe that the Vatican accumulates wealth, which could all be used for millions of suffering Catholics all over the world but instead the money is used on more gaudy items, statues, funny looking hats and robes adorned with precious ore. Much of the money is used for good, but much goes to useless material garbage. I believe the Vatican also has many historical and theological texts that people like you and me will never read. I can keep going.

But I am not anti-Catholic. I am anti-CINO, and definitely anti-”con-men that use Catholicism for power/money/etc.” I do not identify with Catholics, I identify with Christians, and believe the only way to salvation is through Jesus Christ alone. Confessing your sins to a priest who may or may not be a true Catholic to save your soul is disagreeable with my views on salvation, Jesus, the Bible, and God. My beliefs come from my grandparents, who are devout Christians. I have not in my short time on Earth met anyone that come close to their love for God, and their devotion to Jesus Christ. They are truly blessed.

I am sorry that you feel this way, but the Vatican is corrupt. That they would even CONSIDER homosexuality tolerable is proof of it.

Prove to me that the Vatican is not corrupt. Like you say. I will consider your side of the argument and form a new opinion. But don’t just come out and say NOPE, NOPE, NOPE.
For clarification....I’m saying the VATICAN is corrupt. If you consider the Vatican the Catholic Church then I guess I am saying that the Catholic Church is corrupt. I didn’t say ALL CATHOLICS ARE CORRUPT. But I certainly see a lot of evidence that its leaders are. Much like Obama is corrupt. Doesn’t mean Americans are corrupt.
