Addressing the bickering, I think those that treat this as a simply voluntary organization with rules accepted or denied by consenting adults underestimate the influence of the church in hanging a reservation in hell over the heads of its devout with this type of shit. Boru is correct in his estimation of the abject lack of concern the church has with the emotional well being of its flock.
I think there's also a lack of consideration for Catholic majority nations turning this into the law of the land. Might want to seek out a Pole if your confused about my meaning.
Tolerance of illiberal principles is indicative of the regressive left. This type of religious based bullshit deserves all the derision and ridicule one can muster.
Not to mention that religion in adults is most often an artifact of childhood programming, further reducing the sense of choice in the devout.
I feel quite comfortable shaking my head with a gentle laugh at this sort of nonsense, just as I do with many organizations I don't belong to. And it means just as much -- zero, zip, zilch, nada.
