35. And this is precisely the problem, they IGNORE the problems with the hierarchy.
When the Catholic Church lies about the effectiveness of condoms in preventing the spread AIDS in Africa, you shrug and say its not your problem, even though you fund it.

When the Catholic Church helps fund efforts to abolish Same Sex Marriage in various states, you simply shrug and say its not your problem, even though you fund that too.

When the Catholic Church operates a hospital whose emergency room refuses to dispense EC for rape victims, you shrug yet again and say its not your problem.

When the Catholic Church covers up for the crimes of thousands of its priests who molested children, over a period of decades, you shrug your shoulders and say its not your problem.

My question is, what do you have a problem with, because its obvious you have no problem with any of these things, since you still support the CHURCH. So really, do you have any moral or ethical compass at all?
