William Lindsey :toad:<p>If anyone within the institution, those choosing to remain in it, wants to staunch the flow from the church, then there need to be loud, persistent calls from the faithful for the bishops to take a good hard look at themselves, their failed moral and pastoral leadership, and publicly apologize and repent.</p><p>Only then will lots of people consider walking back through the doors of Catholic churches.</p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/Catholics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Catholics</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/PopeLeo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PopeLeo</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/churches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>churches</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/LeavingChurch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LeavingChurch</span></a> <br>/11</p>

William Lindsey :toad:<p>Ultimately, if we want to find someone at whose feet to lay blame for the huge disaffiliation of U.S. Catholics, we havee to look at the bishops and their failed pastoral leadership. For years now, the U.S. Catholic bishops as a body, almost all of them appointed by JPII and BXVI until Francis began changing the balance, have done everything short of standing on their heads to identify the church they lead with the Republican party. </p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/Catholics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Catholics</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/PopeLeo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PopeLeo</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/churches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>churches</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/LeavingChurch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LeavingChurch</span></a> <br>/9</p>

William Lindsey :toad:<p>There is a mass exodus of Americans in general from churches, with younger people until very recently at the forefront of that development. But disaffiliation has been occurring at higher rates in the Catholic church than any other church.</p><p>What's very interesting as I read commentary about these findings in right-wing (i.e., Trump-leaning) Catholic journals is that this set of Catholics want to blame parents for what's going on.</p><p><a href="https://toad.social/tags/Catholics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Catholics</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/PopeLeo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PopeLeo</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/churches" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>churches</span></a> <a href="https://toad.social/tags/LeavingChurch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LeavingChurch</span></a> <br>/5</p>
William Lindsey :toad:<p>Right-wing Catholics want Leo to beef up the Latin Mass, give a high profile to "traditional" Catholic moral teachings — always, always about abortion and pelvic morality, and never, never about social justice, God's preferential option for the poor, etc.</p><p>It really is not a new finding that Catholics in the U.S. are leaving in record numbers.
