And there you have it! The loss of faith is not just among the laity.I can understand addictions and sin but how do you have affairs with men…use drugs…steal money…watch porn etc and then say mass if you believed you were representing Christ? I have done many sins but would I have in their role…I dont know. ** It makes me feel they dont really believe and that makes me sad.**
"The most evident mark of God’s anger, and the most terrible castigation He can inflict upon the world, is manifest when He permits His people to fall into the hands of a clergy who are more in name than in deed, priests who practice the cruelty of ravening wolves rather than the charity and affection of devoted shepherds.
They abandon the things of God to devote themselves to the things of the world and, in their saintly calling of holiness, they spend their time in profane and worldly pursuits. When God permits such things, it is a very positive proof that He is thoroughly angry with His people and is visiting His most dreadful wrath upon them."
