They also fight resentment, bigotry and most of all being intrumentalised by the right. Churches in Western Europe are nothing like Americans may be used to. Both Catholics as well as protestants stand up against exclusion, help refugees and the needy. The protestants are even socially liberal for their most part and also the Catholics have strong factions fighting for social change. Bot priests and laymen.
You don't have much experience of the rcc in Ireland do you? At the moment the church is the standard bearer for the far right in this country. Lucky for us more catholics die each winter than are confirmed each spring.
