110. Entire denominations are not static, as you presume...
It's more important to look at trends within each individual church.

There were a few blowhard Bishops who said the things you state in your initial post. There were scores more, however, who said that it was important for Catholics to look out for "the least among us" and to give to the poor. There's also a fair number of Catholic officials who spoke out against the war on Iraq as a crime against humanity.

Should the entire religion then be scrapped because of the comments of a few blowhards who simultaneously defend current policies surrounding pedophilic priests?
