Sorry if this offends you but who has time for this? Life is short, forget about adhering to some Catholic system designed by a Roman emporer to bring faith into acceptable societal parameters and judge it by it's fruits.
It has not delivered, but it has given us the rot of Christianity and the laughable image of it's "leader" bowing down to idols.
Embrace Jesus where you stand and not in some "holy tradition". If t_d was early Christianity meeting up in secret and with codes, or risking life and limb to preach to an unauthorised crowd, then Roman Catholicism is Tencent and Reddit.
I don't mind. I personally think the church is behind a lot of the human trafficking that happens around the world. But I think this Vigano Cardinal is legit so that's basically my only stance, that he seems to be fighting the power. The church needs a purge the likes of which we've never seen - the Vatican needs to be audited, all their crimes against children need to be punished to the full extent of the law, the pedophile priests should be hanged. All of the crimes need to be exposed and punished for any semblance of legitimacy to return.
I never even made that claim.
If you ask me, the "power structure" itself is part of the problem.
Yes you've made your opinion clear.
