It has become a custom among bishops, to present the downfall of their mismanaged dioceses in very rosy colours.

The ongoing death of the Church is a tragedy - especially because of the loss of so many souls - as Our Lady showed the children at Fatima. The true Church will only be reborn when the novus ordo liturgy is revoked and the True Mass, the TLM, is restored everywhere.

Additionally, the many errors, which have crept into the Church via modernism and the so-called reforms of Vatican II, will have to be acknowledged and rescinded.

the problem is that we do not have leaders but pretenders who instead of teaching Christ r busy as CEO, CFO etc,. spending government money for mother earth/ pachamama, migration and poverty. instead of helping they only make the problem worse because of giving people help they throw money at them and make them lazy and killing their individualism at the same time. Why I would have to work if someone gives me free money?
From the moment Catholic Church hierarchy took money from government the church is getting less and less relevant. This was clearly seen when our"leaders" wet their pants due to virus and made Christ non essential. Very, very sad.
