Thank you for wishes, on the subject of faith I really see the current head of the Vatican negatively, it would be hard not to, but I see John Paul II well, however I believe in God, I go to the Catholic church and I recognize that as a believer God will judge me whether I did good or not but I see movements in the wrong direction so I pray, I pray, I look with scandal at what is happening but I believe in God not in the Pope, the Pope was elected by these people, they can be wrong
Considering what he is doing, it would be hard not to see him negatively. The changes are mindnumbing. I guess he would like to avoid some of the homosexual priest problems with the congregations.

The big problem is trying to make religion conform to secular godless life. It's not necessary.
It's also 🤡🌎.
The purpose of human life is to connect with the supreme. There is no other purpose. The Supreme Godhead doesn't demand this. The Supreme Godhead merely allows individuals to do their own thing. Eventually the individual runs out of steam and realizes that he is she is part of the Supreme and is also a minor reflection but is also totally in the dark regarding omnipotence.
We all work for the Supreme Godhead. Even the evil degenerate demons of men and lower energy beings. They can do whatever they want because they have the freedom to do so, however they quickly burn up all their good deeds which led to a higher life and the degenerate into the animal realm and worse.
It's a matter of repentance, salvation and coming to the Godhead with joy and love. God is no boring old man. God is a vibrant personality of Godhead and he loves to play and have a good time while uplifting us in the process as we are not our human bodies.

If you have good connections at your church then it's an organic thing and that is sincerely where you need to be. Me, I'm a Hare Krishna guy and the Hare Krishna's are full of nonsense, bad actors and the worst of the worst, but... The line of practice that goes back hundreds to thousands of years is like an open source model that needs to be coaxed out by practice, devotion, prayer and connection. For this there is a direct conduit to the supreme and the supreme reveals exactly what we need when we need it.
It also helps when we recognize others who are sincerely devotees to the Supreme Godhead. It's not about the quantity of devotees it is about the quality. All are serving God regardless of what they believe or what evil they think they serve. This is clearly stated in the Shrimad Bhagavatam and the Bhagavad-Gita. It's also in the Bible Old and New Testament. It's by mindful service that we gain happiness and it is by mindless materialism that we suffer immensely not because God is cruel but because God gives us the freedom to roll our own reality and we learn that it's more fun to serve because God is serving us anyway and he doesn't have to but he wants to.
