"Whoever caves to the temptation to 'go it alone' or to live the faith according to the individualistic mentality, which predominates in society, runs the risk of never encountering Jesus Christ, or just following a false image of Him. ... Yes, the Church is not simply a human institution, like any other, but rather she is intimately united to God. Christ Himself refers to her as "His" Church. One cannot separate Christ from the Church, just as a head cannot be separated from the body" (1Co 12, 12). -Pope Benedict XVI, Madrid
