4. It is so important to the Catholic Church to promote priests being better than normal humans
that they are willing to sacrifice children rather than to say that priests are human. But what is worse are the followers that are willing to sacrifice their children to be a part of the religion.

I might be able to understand wanting to believe in Jesus but why oh why believe in a church that has never followed the teachings of Jesus? Power, wealth, corruption and child abuse. How can anyone today be a Catholic?
