I understand Marjorie’s decision & her reasons for leaving the Church. She is rightly outraged by the corruption. But I still disagree with her decision. I urge those who share her concerns not to leave but stay & fight for Christ’s Bride to be purified. https://t.co/41tB7Ej90a — Bishop J. Strickland (@Bishopoftyler) May 5, 2022
I wouldn't criticize the Catholic Church. I know its history very well, many priests are friends, they're scholars and Christian apologists are some of the best in the world. Furthermore, I'm aware of the problems and, for me, the assorted tainted leaders, are only a part of it.
I'm always a bit sad when someone leaves a church because of the church people. I too, face a similar decision. So, I do understand people leaving a fellowship. The thing that comes up is, do I stay and fight for what I believe is right? Or, do I move on to where I believe I may be better served?
