Skeptic's Dogma

     Catechism lends itself 
          neither to controversy
             nor to schism

      but rather to papism
          of limited vision

A relevant rite regarding regulatory Ritual..? Also I read shades of entitlement prevelent in other hidebound insitu oriented groups (of which I see God observes.') Intently' waiting to see.? Can they connect with Basic humanity or will they in the exlusivity they inhabit exclude themselves from His Grace.?

Popes think they have earned a place on the world's stage. That's the problem. They ought to focus on the problems of Catholicism, which are many in this day and age, esp. in America.

Really? Why did God make you? ... Astonishing..! Hard to believe they force-fed kids answers to that one... Oh, well.
