Apologies are not enough
When is the Catholic Church going to learn their bullshit apologies aren’t enough, especially when pieces of shit like James Robinson were allowed to operate for over 4 decades. And then they wonder why people are leaving their fold in record numbers…

And you know what they’ve done now? They’ve stopped bloody processing the forms that allow people to officially take their name off the rolls of the RCC. So you can informally leave, but you can’t stop them using you as part of their numbers when they get government benefits based on number of adherents, or when they tell a politician there are x number of Catholic voters in their district so they’d better not try any of that ‘being reasonable’ shit.

What you don’t see in the video is that the very apologetic archbishop, has his lawyer sitting beside him on the left. Once he read out his weak ass statement, the lawyer jumps in & says no questions:

Aegis, what numbers are we talking? Baptisms? First communions? Confirmations? I was baptisized and first communion-ized but never confirmed, so it makes me wonder… I never tried to officially withdraw, but I was never confirmed to begin with. Also, muslim and protestant voters are a bigger problem locally anyway.

I’ve done an official act of defection from the Catholic church. It’s quite easy to do, and it feels SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO good.
