You said earlier, "to be Catholic you must believe in the one, true church", therefore rejecting other faiths.
My problem with this theory is that it does not follow Christian thinking-- because-- Jesus rejected no one.
When you speak about exams--I’m sure that all the abusive priests passed many exams and were well schooled in dogma--But, didn’t they know that when they were alone and took advantage of innocents, that Jesus was in the room too!
Didn’t Jesus end his time on earth saying-- "I am with you Always"--What part of Always don’t they understand??
