1) Like who? I could go on about claims and evidence, but I'm sure you've heard it all before and understand the nature of my objection.

2) So? What bearing does that have on the previous statement that the Catholic Church does not treat women well? If anything, that casts the Church in a worse light, because so many of the women it deals with are deserving of more than the average amount of respect. (Of course, just because somebody is popular doesn't mean that he or she is actually deserving of that respect, but that's a separate matter.)
