Yes because we're all affected by the corruptness of the Pope.
Actually Angel, we are all affected by the corruption in the Roman Catholic Church. Did you know that the richest slum lord in the world is the Roman Catholic Church? Did you know that the Roman Catholic church allows divorce ONLY for proven adultery? There is a "joke" about the only way to get a divorce in Italy is to have the spouse killed. It isn't a joke, actually. The ONLY grounds for divorce in Italy are: legal seperation (which takes 3 YEARS), if one member of the couple is a foreigner and gets a divorce abroad then the remaining spouse can file for divorce as well and if the marriage has NEVER BEEN CONSUMMATED. How many couples in this day and age get married and never have sex? Physical abuse, mental abuse, emotional abuse, adultery ... LEGALLY, in Italy, a country which is "proclaimed" as Catholic, are NOT grounds for divorce! If a woman has a spouse that beats her on a regular basis her only legal option is to have him put in jail and file for judicial separation. Then she has to avoid him for 3 years before she can get a divorce. Hiring a hitman is cheaper and easier.
Most of the people on welfare, by religious denomination, are Roman Catholic. That's YOUR tax dollars paying for unwanted pregnancies that must go to term because their religion does not allow them to terminate NOR does it allow a healthy woman to CHOOSE to have her tubes tied. And condoms are not reliable.
Crime: the majority of crimes are committed by person classified as poor or working poor. (Catholics on welfare living in Catholic slums)
The proliferation of pedophiles in the Roman Catholic clergy has only come to light because Americans have taken their complaints to the courts not to the church. It isn't "new" it's been going on for centuries. Any action, other than hanging a pedophile out to dry by appeal to the local authorities, within the church is just trying to keep a lid on their corruption. The international body of clergy attest to the fact that the Roman Catholic church is NOT "Christian" it is a cult. Definition of a cult: any organization reporting to be religious which follows the dictates of a living leader. The Roman Catholic chruch takes direction from the Pope, whomever he may be, NOT from the Bible and Church Tradition.
Have you ever heard the guideline "it takes an entire village to raise one child"? It means that everything that happens to ANY child IS YOUR business. Turning a blind eye to what goes on in any cult is against Bible doctrine. We are supposed to be intolerant of injustice. The Roman Catholic church has literally gotten away with murder for centuries because no one will stand up to them.
