Secondly, its the only Christian religion that actually celebrates the Eucharist.The local church I was christened in is now a rather nice pub. This seems to be how most are going.
20 years ago, things were looking pretty bad. The churches were empty! I remember them saying it wasn't worth keeping the lights on. There were literally, 5 people at the evening masses. Today? You can't find a seat in church! And lots of young families, and college students. Very, very surprising. i believe the RCC has been constantly cleaning up its past messes. And actually reaching out to the community. In my diocese, they are pulling all races together for functions and scripture. Its been a real benefit for the community.
For all of its man-made faults, the RCC is still the closest to tradition, and teachings of the Holy Bible. Its here to stay!
And as far as the "old man"? What's that Spacey quote: "The smartest thing Satan ever did was to convince people he doesn't exist." Funny that people have no problem believing in the devil. But, God? Nope!
