How absolutely true about the spread of Catholicism.
ReplyDeleteAny cult will be the «opium of the people» when those peo^ple are less educated and at the mercy of those who will tell them that THEY are the only ones who are the real source of TRUTH.
ReplyDeleteTill the 60's here in Province de Québec, where Catholic Church had a grip on our lives, we did end it by making them out of any politic fields and education too.
Since then, we saw less and less people gping to church on sundays and now, those churches are abandoned buildings and many are converting them in cultural centres or condos or any other kind of spaces and even some are destroyed.
No more people attending the mass meant no more income too.
JiEL - Sounds like they went through their own "conversion therapy."
ReplyDeleteYes, it was catastrohic for the Catholic Church here in Province of Québec and in many other places in Canada.
ReplyDeleteAn even more when the pedophile priest scandals and the natives colleges scandals were brought up to everyone to know all of those bad behaviors coming from those so calles «holy men and women» in religion.
Even my own parents, born in 1925, 1927 were no more attending Sunday mass or other church gathering back in the 80's. My dad was very critical over the religion having himself gone to some Catholic college and university.
What is now the most discouraging is the rise of Islam here. They are now trying to impose their «Shariah» law and way of life.
Believing in one of the religions should improve a person. otherwise it is a deception, it is pathetic and harmful.
