I have a huge catholic church nearby but they aren't holding service. Believe me, I am chomping at the bit to attend. I wish churches had balls. They don't currently have service. I can't respect the pastor for letting this shit stop him from leading his parishioners.
If you don't listen to the Pope then maybe you shouldn't be Catholic. The Pope is supposed to be the infallible messenger of God for the entire church. If you don't listen to the Pope then you're not a true Catholic, anyway.
The infallibility stuff is pretty recent (we've been around for a while) and not everyone agreed with it then or now. I'd say only a dogmatic minority go for that nonsense.
I'm not here to debate, just to offer another opinion.
Those three options I listed all offer the Traditional Latin Mass according to the 1962 missal, prior to the atrocities of Vatican II. They will all adhere strictly to Catholic social teachings. For instance, my FSSP priest doesn't go a week without mentioning something pro-life and he regularly warns against communist infiltration of the church. Just be a bit careful with the SSPX, their sacraments are technically valid but illicit since they aren't quite in full communion with the Church yet.
I haven’t seen many Catholic Churches maintaining themselves as a center of the community. The churches doing well have made an effort to get people congregating. Social media has created a huge opportunity for churches to offer in person community that aspires to a strong moral code.

Sorry to say but Catholic churches are not going to be the best place to look.
The Pope has declared that Left wing policies will now drive the Catholic church.
Agree. You might want to check out a few churches other than the Catholic.
Sadly, the pope is a cuck and it has filtered down.
Seems like a chicken vs egg debate, where the thought exercise may be fun, but the reality is it doesn't matter - both church and Pope are cucked.
Ahh... the old "chicken or egg" dilemma.
They thought and SJW pope would help optics and cover up the pedo scandal
Many Catholics don’t like the pope.
Can confirm. I'm Catholic and the current pope is working for the wrong side.

Just saying.
The idea is a Fake Pope was installed by the same people trying to start the NWO.

Catholicism has had a few fake popes in its History. Google anti-popes. Can’t follow any institution to a T
Lavender Mafia and Marxist Jesuits run the Catholic Church, sorry to say.
Look for an FSSP, ICK, or SSPX traditional Catholic Church!
I'll do that. That local church is pretty big. I hadn't thought about affiliations.

The pastor doesn't make the call, it's the bishop. Pastor has to pretend to like it.
thank you for setting me straight.
