Nothing put me off catholicism, which I flirted with a few yrs ago in the midst of my dante obsession, like twitter catholics. I will die a protestant at heart.

But the institution is really us. I am the Church, so is Alex. You would be, too.

Don't be so naive. You aren't in charge of who you have as a priest, nevermind what the vatican's coffers are used for.
-
But none of those things are the faith. I've know untrustworthy priests and one who are probably living saints. The Church is still us.

You're talking about Christ & not the Church now, & if you can have one without the other... Well, let's not start thinking dangerously here.
-
No, I am saying that you are conflating Christ and His Church with priests and annoying twitter catholics. One shouldn't have a bearing on the other.

The institution that has a monopoly on Catholicism (funded by its parishoners err i mean "the church") should be called what if not The Church?
-
The Church supports Her priests, but they don't constitute the entirety of the Church. It's like confusing the hand for the body.

As I said, I like Dante & some catholics, but not Catholicism.
