Father Addison Hart to Leave the Catholic Church?

from TitusOneNine by Kendall Harmon

From here:

Great encouragement to your congregation and readers, brother. First, as your brother, I send greetings to your wife and children, and wishes for a happy new year.

Second, as an Anglican priest who, with high ideals but considerably lower savvy, "poped" back in 1997, all I can say to those who may be thinking likewise is this: Unless you know in your heart you can believe in such super-added dogmas as papal supremacy and infallibility (very late inventions), that Jesus did not need to possess "faith" during his earthly years (to which I respond, was he or was he not fully human?), and that the bread and wine physically change into his body and blood during the Eucharist without any palpable evidence of it; unless you can believe in Mary's "Immaculate Conception" (an unnecessary and unverifiable belief, if ever there was one), her bodily assumption, and so on, then I would urge you to stay put. You already have everything you need, and, what Rome would add to you, you not only do not need, but should positively avoid weighing yourselves down with. Anglicanism is doctrinally sound and blessed with great forms of worship. Rome is neither. As for Rome's claims to a vastly superior moral authority -- well, I would venture to say that after such revelations as clerical sexual abuse on an international scale and their bank's money-laundering, the lie has been put to that.

No, don't make my mistake. I wouldn't make it again myself, and, as it is, I'm making my way out the Roman door.

Just a word to the wise.
