Thanks, TGAC.

In any language the church is a bunch of hypocritical old bastards who are out of touch with reality.

Reality has a known atheist bias!

Sucks, eh?

A German archbishop is under fire for appearing to liken recent criticism of the Catholic Church to a Nazi-era pogrom. The cleric, Gerhard Ludwig Müller, had said that "targeted discrimination campaigns" against the church sometimes reminded him of a "pogrom sentiment."

*facepalm*

Nothing is as disgusting and stupid as to pose as a victim when confronted with critizism. Let alone to compare oneself with a group of people who you yourself use to discriminate and still do.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Documents released Friday shed light on the inner workings of a secretive and now-disgraced Roman Catholic order called the Legion of Christ, including new details on how the organization solicited money from an elderly widow, eventually persuading her to bequeath it $60 million.

The documents, previously sealed in a lawsuit brought before Superior Court in Rhode Island, include thousands of pages of testimony from high-ranking leaders at the Legion, its members and relatives of wealthy widow Gabrielle Mee. They are the first-ever depositions of high-ranking Legion officials and include how the order's former second-in-command learned in 2006 that its founder had fathered a child.

The No. 2 said he didn't go public with the news of the paternity because the founder, the late Rev. Marcial Maciel, had already been sanctioned by the Holy See for having sexually abused seminarians and forced into a lifetime of penance and prayer.

Isn't the underlined part just fucking special? I wonder where all of our new catholic shits are now? I can't wait to hear the excuses they make for this bunch of holy hypocrites.

There are corrupt, evil people. Doesn't mean the Catholic Church as a whole is corrupt and evil.

[Minimalist]

Of course it does. The church is nothing other than the people who run it.

If they promote evil as being good, then I say they are corrupted.

Do you think human sacrifice is good?

But it is.
