[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did you see “The Keepers”?[/quote] Yes, and no call to end the church or any discussion about religion in society. But let's go after LGBTQ, keeping our guns, and books. Why is this church allowed to exist? [/quote] “End the [C]hurch.” You clearly don’t have the slightest clue what “the Church” is, how it is constituted, the relationship between its various components, or anything else relevant to the discussion. Try doing some research before you talk about “ending” something you can’t possibly comprehend given your present state of appalling ignorance. Hint: “the Church” is not a monolith. It is a confraternity of local organizations (“particular churches”) who acknowledge the Pope as a leader with unique powers and duties, but who also act essentially autonomously in many matters. And who’s going to do this “ending?” Of a worldwide faith with billions of adherents? This [C]hurch is “allowed to exist” because at least in free countries freedom of religious belief is recognized as an inherent human and civil right. [/quote]
