Yeah, one picked up hitchhikers and filmed sex, he's been in for over 12 years now, another had a cabin and invited kids up, I think he may be on parole.

Another one, at a different parrish suddenly left his parrish, moved back east and died, he had some complaints against him, not sure if it was pedopheliac or with women.

Kinda sours you on the whole thing, I go to mass every once in awhile, but I see people praising the symbols and devoting themselves to the symbolic things, and when they leave the church, they are the same jerks that they were when they went in. You can do the stand up sitdown kneel stuff, but if you don't practice any of it (which I have seen in all religions), then the hour a week you spend at mass is just a sham.

So they should stop going to mass? The Church is a hospital for sinners.

Not that you are judgemental or anything. Ever bother to look at people who ARE faithful?
