Obviously I hit a nerve because you accuse me of assuming I own the Catholic faith and decide who should belong or not, when none of those things were in my comments, nor were they implied. As a matter of fact, I specifically stated that the Church is not ours to make as we want it to be. That is something most here on NCR have a hard time dealing with. The rest of your post above is simply mean and spiteful, and does not address what I wrote, only what you choose to imagine. You have made the Catholic Church up in your mind to be what you think it should be, whereas I choose to accept the Church as God chose it to be.
