Which is the only way it can survive. Whenever I go to a normal Catholic church (where rules are regularly violated and discussed as if they can be changed), I can't help but think if rules they don't like do not apply to them, well I guess the rules I don't like do not apply to me either, like the one saying I have to go every week, and more importantly (for the continued existence of churches): the one saying that I have to give 10% of my weekly wages to the collection plate.10 full time minimum wage Catholics giving the proper 10%/wk (total: $13,600/yr) provide more support than 100 liberal Catholics who give $2/wk and pat themselves on the back (total: $10,400/yr). Traditional Catholics will eventually be the primary source of funding for the Church, and thus it will make more economical (as well as spiritual) sense to cater to them. |
