[quote=Anonymous]I guess I feel like I came to terms with this in my teens when I started studying World History and hearing about the many, many abuses of power within the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church has had corrupt leaders within it since the Edict of Milan. Dante put previous Catholic Popes in his Inferno. Martin Luther protested very real abuses of power within the Church. The latest abuses of power aren't any worse than the previous ones. In some ways, this seems tame compared to things like the castrations performed in the 16th century. I don't understand why this particular abuse has people leaving the church. Is it just the timing? Or did you somehow not know about the others? [/quote]
