  1. The same thing is going on in the USA. I go to many different Catholic Churches because I travel often. This started shortly after the Papal coup. They want to fill the empty pews with Central Americans, while also collecting cash to resettle them.

    Everything liberals touch turns to shit. The church will be no different.

    They. need to clean house and allow priests to marry. This would solve the gay sexual abuse issue.

  2. Just like with the universities, the seminaries were staffed with libs of all colors, including those whose soul goal was to change and undermine the Church. Thankfully many, many of the young priests who are doctrinally correct and conservative, are now coming out of the seminaries and taking over parishes as the old guard are dying off.

  3. @ Anonymous traveling Catholic:
    We don’t need married priests; we need faithful, devout, conservative (liturgically and politically) ones. Thankfully, this seems to be the trend recently.
    A new pope would help too. (I’d be happy with the old one they’ve got locked in the tower.)
