Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ said, "Wide is the road to destruction and narrow is the way to salvation!" I will stay on the narrow path and this article affirms what Christ said. I am happy and thank God I was raised Catholic and have attended weekly mass since the day I was born thanks to my mother and family.

The article fails to mention that the Catholic Church on marriage and divorce, homosexuality, and faith in general follow Christ teachings 100% and do not waiver from the truth and proclaiming the Gospel. People will always fall short, but Christ told Peter that upon you I build my Church and it will prevail against the gates of hell. People and even Popes need salvation and all sin and require the sacraments and precious blood of Christ for redemption and there are no exceptions. The author of the article appears to be proud that people fall from their faith and adopt sinful choices for their lives. I would expect such as this based upon the source and would expect others to revel in attacking Christ's Church and make other statements that their church is superior to the Catholic faith. Those same other denominations that allow divorce and homosexuality in some cases in direct opposition to the Gospel.

I am proud to defend the faith and thank God for the graces given to me and pray for those that fall from grace and to the worldly views that temp many into a life destructive to families and children and harmful to their souls.

Well-put.
" The author of the article appears to be proud that people fall from their faith and adopt sinful choices for their lives. "
Exactly. The prideful reveling in others', especially Catholic's, potential damnation: we see a lot of that here.

" statements that their church is superior "
The really vicious detractors either don't belong to a church, or refuse to acknowledge that they do. Keeps them under the radar. Like kids who throw rocks, them run and hide.
