[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I am an ex catholic for many of the reasons you mention. Also their stance on birth control, abortion, women as priests, etc. However I don't hate Catholics or the church.

Just like other large bodies, say the USA, have done horrible things, and has horrible individuals, but that doesn't make everybody guilty by association.  D[b]o you think all Germans should leave Germany because of the Holocaust?[/b]

It's not an individual, faithful Catholic's fault that there are pedos and other horrors in the church and the church's history.  They can remain a faithful member and work to change the corporation from the inside.  [/quote]

Agree. There is literally no institution in the world made up of humans that has no sin, crime, and corruption. Not one.[/quote]

Germany is not a good comparison.   They lost a world war because  of their misdeeds; the perpetrators were hunted down and executed. They have changed their government completely from a dictatorship to a democracy and are still occupied by forces that were victorious over them more than 75 years ago.[/quote]
