Ever meet a Catholic who was faithful to their duties?

RE: Ever meet a Catholic who was faithful to their duties?
In defense of all religious people not just Catholics--people are fallible. Human beings are flawed, and following a strict code of conduct would be a challenge for anyone. Even the most pious religious person will fall short.

The problem with religion is that it implies that being a decent human being can only be achieved through following a list of spelled out "rules," dictated by said religion.

And, that's not true. Altruism is a component of evolution, not an invention given to us by religions.
