The Catholic Church's business model is to bilk money from the credulous by convincing them that an invisible man in the sky will reward them after they're dead.
How can such an industry of deceit not produce corrupt leaders?

"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

They have to do something while they are sitting in the confessional waiting for the next loser to show up.

Does anyone know of a global organization that supports and protects alcoholic, homosexual pedophiles?
A rational, informed person must despise religion- and hate it because it is the most destructive cultural force in man's history. However, it is unjustified to blame (& reject) God because of religion. Religionists (not merely Jews) killed Christ, thinking that they were serving God. Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater!
