[quote=Anonymous]I've been reading the posts and I was troubled the recommendation for the parishioner to leave the church because of one Father/priest if he/she had issues. The church is not the priest or any one individual, it's the [u]people[/u]. However it is unfortunate when a priest elevates himself to a pedestal as if he is actually Jesus and finger wags. Look, I go to another local Catholic church, but I have to say that the only judge is the one we see when we face god, not a priest. Although I do not necessarily agree with all of the comments, I do think that priests should be less judgmental and less about the finances. I mean, I have seen when Parishes have refused to baptize children or perform another ceremony simply because they did not have strong records (as held by the church) for tithing. To me, that's when the church could be magnanimous and set the example as an "understanding" partner on our journey back to our Lord. It does bother me when the business Father rears its ugly head. Again, the only thing I agree with in the posts is being less judgmental and more understanding…and also the money issue.[/quote]
