Ah yes - the all encompassing loophole of sinful Catholics "Vilify others for not abiding by the book, then do whatever you want. Just admit you aren't perfect and Jesus will forgive you."

I believe the whole point of "recognize your imperfections and you shall be forgiven" is also followed up with the intention to "strive to remove those imperfections."

Also, I didn't say "selectively believe". I said, "selectively follow".

Also, never said the faith is flawed, but those who leverage that faith while being overwhelmingly hypocritical - like those that vilify someone for one sin while the accuser is committing another.

Any more of my words you wish to spin to change the meaning of?
