The K of C deserve to be bashed without mercy. The view they are taking amounts to handing over the US and her future destiny to the 3rd world. THis is not the only problem I have with them either. The K of C liek I said amounts to a go along, get along group that for quite some time has excused bad behavior and decsions by the Bishops.
Again, not one of my hard earned dollars goes tothe K of C, they are simpily heading in the direction Catholics Charities has headed in.
