This is the most childish and pointless debate the church has ever had! As an atheist, I know for a fact that I'm not going anywhere when I die as neither heaven nor hell exist. It's like a bunch of children debating whether Santa will visit a naughty adult at Christmas

“but there is also the everyday holiness of ordinary mothers and women, of men who work every day for their families, and this brings us hope,” he said.” Sounds too much like Opus Dei, methinks!

Laugh a minute if you ask me.

The RCC, if they are not buggering choirboys they are buggering the church with this ”get divorced and be out on your ear regarding communion” crap. Don’t they want followers? No, they want POWER.

Back to “I’ll put the fear of God in you” ha, ha, ha.
