In the end, all are either Catholic or Protesting against The Only Church Founded by He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies.  There are degrees of darkness in the souls of those protesting The Faith Handed Down From The Apostles.

The darkest souls hire abortionists, drug providers, terrorists, and other hired killers to inflict death.  Those who approve, but are not directly involved, are nearly as dark.

The cowardly surrender.  “I hate the killing, but there is nothing I can do.  I will show that I am good by worrying about The Environment!”  Similarly, sex, sports, entertainment, and the worldly arts keep many souls from greater light.   So do fashionable homes, vehicles, and clothing.

Some focus on gain for the sake of having more.

Despite Creation’s temptations, some heed He Who Fulfilled The Prophecies.  Those drawn closest to Him strive to obey all that He instructed.  His Great Winnowing Command separates His obedient sheep in every generation.

He repeated “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.” EIGHTEEN TIMES!   Most do not allow their minds to seriously consider and correctly conclude:  “The only way I may obey is to receive Catholic Communion.”

The Last Supper was clear.  Jesus ordained His priests with the power to preside over The Miracle of Changing Bread and Wine into His Body and Blood.  And, He ordained His priests with the power to forgive sins.  John 20:21 and Mt. 16: 18-20 tell us that He told His clergy:  “Those whose sins you forgive on earth are forgiven in Heaven.”  That forgiveness lets us be worthy to receive Him.  Dark souls disagree.

Many prefer degrees of darkness to His Great Light.  They go on, protesting until the sad end that keeps the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven from opening the gates thereto on their behalf.
