Oooops, Are we all Catholic again? I missed the Memo.
I have to say though, this must be a troll. Good popcorn thread though.

No, I am most definitely not Catholic. That church is far too backwards for me personally.
However, it is still the original Christian church, and needs to be respected for that. I believe that there are many good Catholics. And certainly the concepts of what is sin needed to be updated. So at least some progressives in the church managed to get these changes past.
But I could name so many things where the Catholic church is so much in the wrong today. A similar progressive movement in the church tried to get the rules about allowing condom use changed, since so many Catholics in Africa are all dying of AIDS. However, the church bureaucracy defeated this attempt, despite the fact that it had the potential to help stop the spread of AIDS, and thus save countless human lives.
