Wait a minute, Paul. You're saying that the Catholic Church is "the great and abominable church"? Or are you saying that anyone who belongs to a church other than the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints is part of the great and abominable church?
There are only two churches. One is the church of the Lamb and the other is the church of the devil. I learned that by reading the Book of Mormon. The Catholic church is part of the church of the devil. Islam is part of the church of the devil. All false religious organizations are of the church of the devil.

I can't believe that someone who is as knowledgable about the scriptures can be this obtuse when it comes to the gospel and compassion.
Read the scriptures more carefully. The Savior taught that those who enter into the broad gates of wickedness are headed to destruction. The Savior taught about hellfire, damnation, and eternal torment for those who pervert the right ways of the Lord.
My compassion will not allow sin. The Lord will not allow sin either. Repent or perish! There are many who allow sin all in the name of “compassion”. I trust you aren't one of them.

No one can judge a man's heart. You're saying that a Catholic priest, who honestly believes his Church is right is wicked? What do you think the purpose of baptisms for the dead are, Paul? They are designed so that people who haven't had the opportunity to hear the gospel can be baptised!
We can judge another by their fruits. By their fruits we shall know them and by their evil fruits they are condemned. The Book of Mormon reveals that those who teach for the doctrine of baptizing babies know not the Christ. They are in bonds of inquity. I believe the Book of Mormon to be the work of God. Do you?
We baptize for the dead hoping that spirits on the other side will accept the ordinances on condition of their repentence. No one will enter into the celestial kingdom believing that little children need baptism. Either they forsake this wicked doctrine or will be judged according to the thoughts and intents of their hearts - along with their deeds.

I think you need to temper your sense of justice with a little more
I prefer to stick with the teachings of the prophets and point out what will happen to mankind if they do not repent.
