I'm afraid calling it a "swamp" is being far too kind. This system is pure evil, from the bowels of hell, and being directed by satan, the Master of Deception. The catholic church, along with the fallen protestant church are so deceived, to their destruction.
The saddest this is that it is so right before our eyes, and it's been there all along, right in our faces, and so few realize it, or refuse to even consider it. It brings Matthew 7:13-14 to mind:
13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and few find it.
