The priest was giving a sermon condemning the atrocities by Russia in Ukraine. I wanted to shout that he's a liar — but there's a time and a place for everything. Knowing that the worshippers were being misled and deceived was no surprise intellectually, but I so rarely go inside any ecclesiastical building (childhood allergy hasn't receded) that it really hit me to experience it.
Live. Not. By. Lies.
I experience this every Sunday w/ my husband & children (he's a Catholic, somewhat awake). He's open to all number of "conspiracy theories" but the fall of yhe church is going to hurt his soul.
Sitting through mass is excruciating for me.
