the poem, by the way, was written long ago...
long before I ever thought about becoming Catholic.  I think it was true then and is still true now.  Jesus Christ - and his death, resurrection, and second coming are central to the beliefs of us all.

archiew---a lot of people don't really knwo hwo wealthy the Roman Catholic
church really is. They lost over $ 1 billion dollars in a land fraud scheme some 20 years ago and didn't even flinch. Could they put some of the money they put into gaudy churches to better use?...for them ,why start now?

I do enjoy reading you, Unicorn, but...
Catholics are the original Christians.  I know kind of where you're coming from, though.  I grew up in and spend most of my life in a denomination that sort of taught that about Catholics.  I think you would be surprised, as I was, when visiting a Catholic church.

As far as I know . . . .
Catholics and Mormons are both Christian faiths.

my vote
the religion outside of Christians that has the gaudiest is Mormons. Catholics aren't usually considered to be in the category of Christian anyway.
