HE IS NOT ASLEEP. JUST TIRED OF ALL THE BS!

I thought that Mad Mike's take on the state of the Catholic Church was well stated but didn't quite hit home for me. I responded with;

The Pope took a page out of Sarah Palin's playbook and decided to go while the going was good. I partially go along with the notion that god was asleep while all this has been going on but that sounds more like a 'blame game" to me. Since He cursed us with "free will" back when Adam & Eve roamed the planet we have been put in charge of our own destinies. That's the price we paid for Eve's feeding Adam the apple and there are no refunds.

Everything that's happened since then are a direct consequence of the follies of those in charge which looks like they were follies indeed.

The Church as God intended via Jesus' teachings only exists in the Bible and doesn't even have a remote similarity on how we practice the faith.

We should all be thankful God has nothing to do with the mess we made.

A sleeping Lord, a pope, and a definition of faith
