    Doesn’t this mean a Reformation is on the way?

      Reformation fixed nothing. When my grandpa died, his Catholic Church which he donated and volunteered for over two decades, charged my grandma money so that the priest would mention his name in a blessing during Sunday mass.

        Right. The reformation also spawned the protestant church. Joel Osteen doesn’t exactly embody the anti-indulgence church either. If the reformation had led people away from the church, it would have fixed it. Instead there are multiple sides, each one pointing at the other and saying “well, we’re not like them though”.
