I did not know the rules of them being solely for Catholics only and commented on a couple and when said I had been raised Catholic but left the church thirty years ago because of predatory priests the response was so rude I never cared to look at another.
I did get private entreaties to return to the church from others, but the OP was nasty.
Now that they have an ImPopester who is a communist tool I would never go back.
They never really addressed the rampant homosexuality among priests and that’s at the root of the problem.

I was nominally Catholic growing up, but haven't set foot in a Catholic church in half a century. Had my family been more active in the church, there's every reason to believe that I or my brothers would have eventually had a brush with the sexual predations that have been rampant in that institution for decades.

Religion is a subject that's even more volatile than politics. Its why I have studiously avoided religion threads in all my years posting here.
