[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Is there any way that people can post here without you trying to tear them down? It's specifically a thread for lapsed Catholics. Start your own thread for what did you parents do to help you with your religion and get off this one. [/quote] I’m not “tearing down” anyone. I simply object to people blaming the Church and its doctrines for their own choices to “lapse” in their Catholic practice. It seems you would prefer an echo chamber.[/quote] In my experience as an old Catholic coot, it's more common to lapse due to "people issues" than doctrinal ones. (There are exceptions, of course). Keep in mind that Jesus had both a "cleansing the Temple" mode and a "woman caught in adultery" mode. We should, too. Sometimes people may need a good kick in the pants, it's true, but other times they need a hug. Administering the former when they need the latter will drive them away from Jesus and His Church, not bring them closer. [/quote]
