No accountability for the Catholic Church
#25
RE: No accountability for the Catholic Church
Catholicism isn't an "organization." It's a belief system. Despite whatever wrongdoings Catholic individuals have done in the past and will surely continue to do (as we don't claim to be perfect), you can't simply forbid someone from being a Catholic. 

That's like saying that since there have been sexual assault cover ups by people working in schools and colleges, education should no longer be allowed.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
