Hence, though the other thread is closed, I would attend an RC funeral in order to be the means of leading the sheep out.
If we just stand outside screaming "THE POPE IS ANTI-CHRIST! YOUR CHURCH IS THE CHURCH OF SATAN! YOU ARE IDOLATERS! I'M A ONE NOTE MELODY!", then we will have no effect on the people inside. We are turning our backs on those in need.

Do we blame their traditions? The Vatican? The shepherds (false), The people in the pews?
My burden is for the people in the pews who are being misled, misinformed and misdirected. Therefore, as in a burning building I RUN to the sheep and not away from the sheep. The building is burning, the sheep need to be led out. | That would seem to be a question of degrees of guilt. I would not say that the people in the pews are anywhere near as guilty as the leadership. |
