I had no idea Catholicism was a Democracy.

Catholic bishops' effort to deny Biden communion risks alienating church members, a majority of whom support abortion rights

So the tenets of Christianity no longer depend on the Bible, or the WORD OF JESUS, but instead, on what "Catholics" decide is "OK" from day to day.

But this is the advice of Liberals: follow the whims of the flock, and not the WORD OF GOD.

Personally, I do support Abortion. But that is one reason I NEVER TAKE COMMUNION.

I admire those with pure intentions, and I respect Jesus. So I may (and do) sin, but spitting in HIS FACE is simply not my style.

If, if, the Catholic Church returned to following the actual TEACHINGS OF JESUS, I might question my beliefs and actions.

I might rethink my willful sins.

But when they allow the most disgusting evil to prosper, purely for POLITICS. Count me out.

Excommunicate Biden. Excommunicate Pelosi.

Then I may return to the flock.

Until then, the Catholic Hierarchy is a disgusting mass of sinners far worse than I.

Catholic Church is very antigun. Not just individual priests, it goes all the way up to Vatican. At one point NRA urged its Catholic members to write letters to Vatican.
Vatican has PR office.

I ceased to be a Catholic decades ago.

But I still keep hope alive that some day it will return to the basics.

I believe John Paul I was interested in that, and his faith in the basics is what got him killed. The Vatican also has a Deep State.

Back in the 16th century, Martin Luther made a pretty good case for why I don't have to listen to the Catholic Church.

Michael Servitus, founder of the Unitarians, and author of the world's rarest printed book, was burned at the stake by Calvin in Geneva in 1553.

No expert, but I wonder how many modern Unitarians have any clue.

It's incredible how cruel humans can be.

It's also amusing to me how we tend to have a view that our ancestors were savages. For example, I think the vast majority of people today would consider burning people at the stake to be a pretty savage act. And just think: assuming our species is still around, the people of the 26th century will most likely look back at us and consider us savages.

The human race has not changed a bit....

Nelson Mandela, "hero", was famous for this:
