Why do I care who is the infallible 'president' of their church?

I do get a bit annoyed with this notion in the mainstream media that everyone cares about what Catholics do ... especially when it comes to the governance of their organization.

Of course, considering the history of genocide, violence, persecution and intolerance perpetrated by that particular sect of Christianity, I have a tough time understanding why it is even still in existence.
