So what? Your linking him to the Church is incorrect.
I guess since I'm a member of the RC Church, a parent, a Republican, a United States citizen, and a member of the human race, his inappropriate, perverse behavior which was a betrayal of his responsibility and duty to all the above, plus his duty to those he represented pisses me off.
I would like to smack him with a sock full of pennies.
What, you just went off on a far out limb claiming he was a Scientologist in post 157, just because he accepted a book.
But you can't take in the truth that he was known full out and out as a practicing Roman Catholic?
Heck, check his profile out at Wikipedia...

Do a google search...

He at least pretended to be Roman Catholic... deal with it. Just as I am not proud of some Southern Baptist doing junk like this, you take your lumps and face the fire that sin affects people. Foley was guilty of sins of the flesh and he pretended to be an outstanding member of Catholic church.
