I think your still confused.

In my statement i wasn;t even referring to mormonism at all but to a previous posters comment on catholic attendance, with my personal opinion that its the commitment of the attendees that matters over the number. I was not even making a comment on mormonism at all in that regard.

Unfortunately church attendance is fairly low in the west (cursed liberal relativist ideological corruption), But i kow for a fact that in Australia at least despite being only 25% of the population catholics make up around 55% of those who attend church weekly.

It is commendable the attendance rate and commitment mormons, particularly in america (from my knowledge of the Mormon Church in Australia they have trouble with attendance due to cultural reasons). I believe that it is helped significantly by the cultural and communal structure within mormonism itself. That is the family an communal involvement and immersion within mormonism. Catholicism sadly has not got such a strong communal component at least in the west and that is perhaps an aspect of the differences in relative attendance in the west between mormonism and the Catholic Church respectively. It is perhaps a lesson we can learn from your community.

I’m sorry, then…because the post to which I responded did specifically mention Mormonism, in a thread devoted to Mormonism…It was a natural conclusion on my part that your abrupt change of topic to Catholic sincerity in attendence was, indeed, a comment in criticism of Mormons specifically. It might have helped if you had let us know that you were changing the subject. 😉

However, thank you for clarifying it…I appreciate it very much!
