The good thing about the Catholic Church is that you actually have an authority who can put a wayward bishop out to pasture. They might not exercise that too often (if ever?), but they do have the authority.

My Methodists are learning that tolerating this is causing their churches to empty.

Actually Pope Francis just $#!+ canned some guy in Australia. For advocating homosexual marriage and ordination of women.

I think he not only laicized him, he excommunicated him too.
