requires this of all the believers

If there was a renewal of faith for some reason, at what point would the church start turning people away?

This is truly the only part of the Bible leftists read, isn't it.

That's not a refutation.

Okay but what about the part where the Popes disagree with you on this?

Leave the church your expansive land holdings and see if they turn it down. At what point would they start turning it down?

You seem to have forgotten the church ruled a papal state in Italy from the Duchy of Rome in Byzantium to 1870...and the church did not give it up willingly. During the majority of that time, life for the majority of people, was serfdom. And those lands belonged to the church/state or a few rich well connected church/state families, i.e. communism. They wanted it all, they wanted to keep it all, and they would have expanded more if they could have. The Church decrying "communism" is really just decrying states they didn't/don't like...Soviet Union, China, etc...Note Cuba is communist and yet Castro got visited by three popes because he stopped suppressing them.
