It's not the church that's disgusting the public, it's the behavior of high-level authorities within the church. Illustrating my point is the fact that, in general, Pope John Paul is one of the highest esteemed men in the world, and the Catholic Church is an accepted part of fabric of American life. JFK was a Catholic, as is his brother Ted.

The only aspect I can agree with regarding the media is its hypocrisy regarding pedophilia in the Catholic Church and pedophelia in the Boy Scouts. Why is one so loathesome and one so defensible? And don't feel alone in your persecution - the media hates Protestants as well.

Well a hell of a lot of the church members are disgusting me
Especially those wonderful catholics in Boston who send pro abortion, pro homsexual agenda Teddy Kennedy back to the senate every 6 years

And ain't it sad that the Boy Scout leaders have done far more and have had more resolve against abandonning their boys to the predators than those wonderful cardinals. The Scout leaders went to the supreme court to protect their boys while the cardinals welcomed the homosexuals with open arms to the seminary
