catholic priests all over America read a letter at Sunday mass telling their flocks not to vote for Barack Obama.

They preach intolerance toward homosexuals, call using condoms a sin and cover up their support of pedophiles and Nazi apologists.

My family volunteers at the local soup kitchen every Sunday. My Dad retired and is a full time volunteer at an area hospital. My neighbor was named volunteer of the year for the meals on wheels program he created and runs. We are all Atheists. People can give and be a good person without endorsing institutions they believe are morally corrupt.

If you are happy with the way your church behaves that's great, but you don't have to be a member to be a giving caring human being.
