Money talks, apologetics....well you know

The trouble with professional Catholics is that they will do whatever they have to in order to keep the money rolling in. I feel something close to sympathy. The rent/mortgage needs to be paid, the kid's tuition is a big ole check and marriages explode when the bills aren't paid. I get it. The company man does what he has to. However,as I've said before, I don't trust any layperson who makes his or her living off the Church and whose teachings are treated as equal or greater than that of an ordained member of the clergy.
