Maybe because of the same reason most Catholics haven't left the Church because of pedophiles.
Maybe because most of us are adult enough to take the good and ignore the bad.
There are people in my family I wouldn't trot out on the campaign trail. Doesn't mean I will disown them.
Grow up.
This is not an enormous church where "my parish is o.k."
This is the church where Obama sat for 20 years, listening to this awful vitriol and America-hating, racist rhetoric. He chose this church.
This is not his family in any sense of the word.
You choose your preacher, you don't choose your family.
Moreover, Obama most likely chose this church to give himself street cred, because he isn't any more black than he is white, and he's not African-American, he's the child of a Kenyan Marxist. So he had to go to extremes to break into politics. And this church is extreme. It could only survive in the hothouse world of Southside Chicago politics.
This is not a typical black church -- I've been to lots of them, whether Pentecostal Holiness, A.M.E., or Baptist. This "black value system" and "reject middleclassness" and all the rest of the mindless racist rhetoric is way out in left field.
Uh, the Church does not teach nor promote pedophilia
And I am not Catholic
Funny, Oprah had no problem casting aside Wright in 1986 after attending the church for two years after recognizing at the very least that the rhetoric spewing from that pulpit would hurt her or her image. Obama’s apparently a little slow on the uptake. Great quality for a commander in chief.
