No Such Thing As The Perfect Church ...
"But there is no such thing as a perfect church!"
Let's face it, churches in Europe, and in Ireland in particular are very weak. Many of them are false. Many of them teach false doctrine. Many of them teach confusing mixtures of doctrine. Many of them teach no doctrine at all. In many of them the sacraments are corrupted, and there has been no church discipline for generations.
Few deny this charge who look objectively and dispassionately at the situation.

Why Attend Our Church?
There are different reasons why a person might attend a particular church.
Some attend a church out of tradition. "I have always attended here. My parents attended here. So I will attend here."
Others attend a church because it is close by, perhaps in the same village, town or city, or within easy driving distance. The key word is "convenience."
Others attend a church because the people are friendly and their friends are there, and they "feel comfortable" there.
