And the low morals of so many of your popes and priests bear out what a disaster Catholicism has been for the countries in which it is the dominant religion.
And we're still seeing the fruit of that today.
If we still seek medical care despite bad doctors, if we still seek to learn despite bad teachers, if we still shop despite rude clerks, we should still belong to the Church despite the bad members of the Church. After all, if the Church were to admit to her ranks only perfect and sinless members, we ourselves would not be allowed to join. The Church is a hospital for sinners, people just like us and even worse, with faults and foibles, who are called, with the help of God, to love God and neighbor better. Dr. Christopher Kaczor, Professor of Philosophy at Loyola Marymount
What disaster? We are the same Church we have ever been. Our popes for the past several centuries were all wonderful. Those who were not so great, unlike Luther and the rest of Protestant shysters, did not start a new religion -- they in fact left no noticeable legacy to their feebleness. Catholicism is going to dominate the new century. God is with us.
