Gotta love 'em Jesuits! 

It is only "clean" if it lines up with their organizational goals.

9% of Catholics Sometimes Think of Leaving the Church
Mahar Mangahas and Iremae D. Labucay

In reaction to the statement, "Sometimes I think I might leave the Catholic Church" ["Paminsan-minsan iniisip ko na baka umalis na ako sa Simbahang Katoliko"], 9.2% of Catholics, or about one in every eleven, said they strongly or else somewhat agreed, in the SWS national survey of registered voters last February 15-17, 2013.

The question was fielded on SWS's own account, as a public service, in response to the assertions of Fr. Joel Tabora, S.J., in his blog of February 7, 2013, that "The Catholic Church is in trouble - even in Catholic Philippines," and that "People have been leaving the Catholic Church. People are about to leave the Church. It is time, I think, for Mahar Mangahas to take out his social survey tools to help us understand what is happening."

Such a purist, why not say Holy Mass in ancient Aramaic? It's the tongue of Jesus Christ.

Wala pa po atang Holy mass during Christ's time. Pero meron atang chirch sa may C-5 I think, na they us latin language to celebrate Holy Mass.

The fact that even the apostles of Jesus doubted him means we are all constantly in doubt.

Yes sir. We are not perfect. Sometimes we doubt our God because the events does not unfold to our advantage.
