I think its pathetic how people can let stuff like this affect their beliefs. I don't care what your beliefs are, but the second you change them, you're lost. Without something to believe in, you don't know who you are.
It's not like bad preists and bishops is new or anything either. Hell there was one pope that had 7 kids! When napolean told the pope in 1795 that he would bring down the catholic church in one year, the pope told him that priests and bishops have been trying to do that for 1,795 years, so theres no way he could do it. But the catholic church still exists because people still stood up for what they believed in. It wasn't the bad priests and bishops the people believed in, it was a little book called the bible.
Now i don't judge what people believe in as long as they have some strong beliefs, but i get irritated when people slam a whole church for a small percentage of fuck ups. Every group of people has a few fuck ups and nobody can deny that. I hope i don't affend anyone, but that's my view on all of this crap.
