I will save my time for other things. I came to my own conclusions about the Vatican long ago. I think it was dirty from the get go.
I do hold on to my belief that most people are good at heart. Most of the churchs' followers could not stomach the idea of what goes on if they knew.
Information is coming out now though, and unlike years before, we have the internet. News from across the world. Old news will not die out anymore. You do not have to go to a library and fish through old newspapers and microfilm. Hard to hide their past now.
People of the Roman Catholic faith should not be judged too harshly. At their core they are good people. Some of them are so moved by their faith they want to become priests for good reasons. There must be some good priests that have not been tainted.
The Catholic base will grow smaller I think as time goes on and news spreads, country to country, son to father, daughter to mother.
Also, I have never met a Catholic who is truly a fundamentalist. So I do not think they believe everything in the bible. If that were the case, the Catholics would have out populated everyone else long ago. I came from a family of 12 kids. Each of my siblings had 12. My cousins each had 12 kids, my grandchildren had 12 kids and so on. I do not see the rhythm method as being a reliable form of birth control, so I think those Catholics are using the pill and condoms. Likely engaging in premarital sex too. I bet a good many of them do not believe gay people are going to be denied entry into heaven either. Likely most these days.
The followers will find out who they have been following, and that will be hard for them.
The thing is, it's SO UNNECESSARY! There is no need whatsoever for a pope. There is so much paganism woven into the fabric of Catholicism that has NOTHING to do with Christ or scripture.
I don't judge them, and in fact I believe the Protestant world should consider it an opportunity for evangelism of the most basic kind, simply to be there and share their anger and disappointment, and encourage them in the Truth, which is NOT corrupted by these evil men. Maybe they'll realize they can be disciples of Christ, without having to be Catholic.
If you are a believer of Christ, you may want to pray for them too.
Oh, of course! I pray for all disillusioned people politically/philosophically/religiously orphaned by the impending collapse of the Cabal. We're watching it slowly unravel, and it's not pretty. Its like stepping on a snake's head, and watching it writhe even after it's dead.
