What's the future of Catholic Church and Satan?

Way to win friends and influence people! I'm just gonna sit back and watch. This should be fun!

Well, you're right. I got carried away. What I meant was, that hatred towards religion is not a good thing. That's all. But I shouldn't be saying that, knowing that I'm new here, I'm sorry!

As an atheist who has been playing organ for Catholic Mass for the last 25 years . . . (I'm cutting down to ONE Mass in two weeks, and sometime after that I will be FREE!!  FREE!!  BWAhahahah . . . ) (oh where was I?  Oh yeah, Catholics.)  Well . . . I have questioned quite a few Catholic Priests.  Many don't take the Bible literally.  Many don't believe in hell.  (Of course, some still do.)  I asked why, then, Jesus died and rose again, and was told 1) to show his commitment to his ministry, and 2) he may not have actually risen from the dead. They already take a Gospel reading, and preach on "how this can speak to us today" and "how these words can help us reach out to the needy and suffering".  So I think that they will change - - a lot. I think that the idea of literal transubstantiation will go by the wayside, and there will be married priests (I already know two.) and female priests.  I think that it will become more of a weekend social justice club.

I do agree with that. I think Catholic Church has so much money, that it'll stay with us for next 2000 years, build space ships. And it will evolve, because like every corporation, they have a 'follow-the-client' mentality. But I might be wrong.

My aim was on peaceful discussion about possibilities, not wanted to offend anyone here.
