There is no doubt that ANY group/race has it's non-saintly or not so proud of folks or dumb rules of the past.

As per usual, in this case the negative commentary on catholics/catholosicsm, a minority of specifics applied as a general, usually denigrating statement for the purpose of making a point.

The negative commentary in fact can be most certainly applied to any group/population.

I look forward to some day hearing about what the majority are doing. And right behind that, a discussion without dredging up select models from the past, out of context, usually, to make a point or start a fire!!
