A lot of people who don’t go to church will list off xyz reasons but really they just don’t value the church enough to bother to go. They don’t think the church is worth putting the work into. The Church, by even Catholic canon law, includes all of Christianity. The church instituted by Christ is all of Christianity. I would never hope for the destruction or collapse of any church, even the most corrupt, which I don’t think the Catholic Church is by any means. I am Eastern Orthodox Catholic so not in communion with the Church of Rome at this time but I understand the power of prayer. I understand the power of God to turn any horrific breakage into healing and beauty and new life. I am filled with hope thanks to Christ. Besides, Catholics and Orthodox are the ones who compiled the biblical canon while protesting Protestants who just love to protest watered it down. Slashing out huge sections they simply don’t like. So anyone saying “Catholics aren’t biblical” is just brainwashed by protestor cults that don’t actually value scripture. They just want to protest their fellow Christians.
Me asking “what do you think of the new American pope?” Was not an invitation for people who don’t go to church to tell me how much they wish churches would collapse 🙃
