I was raised not to be a big fan of the Catholic Church.
I realize people grew up in it and can be great people so I don’t go negative unless it’s something like this.
Your take is my impression also.
I have lived near 40 years with ‘Catholic’ in-laws... They love obama, and one hopes Obama will finally get around to stripping the wealthy of their money. Oh, some of them routinely trip out to WDC and join the ‘Life March’. But strangely NO pressure was brought to bear/bare on the past 3 sitting Speakers of the House to pull the plug on taxpayers funding Planned Parenthood... I won't be deceived by them any longer.
They are entitled to be loyal to Rome, but they are not entitled to force me to be subjected to fund their religion, and stay quiet about it.
