no basis..for truth..Totally skipped my posts on the rampent amount pedophiles in the Catholic priest hood..Also divorce is dealt with more in depth in leviticus.......the truth is the Roman Church is in apostasy....Jesus said 'you'll know them by their fruits'......A corrupt Vatican that actually had a lot of stock in birth control pills... before you claim to be the true church you should check on church scandals of the Vatican..and yes that is a moral issue.

The Church has gone to great lengths to establish protections for children. For example, I can't even enter my daughter's classroom to read a short story without getting fingerprinted by the Police department and taking a class on abuse prevention, and being put through a national background check. Most of these procedures predate the 2002 scandal, by the way.

With all the abuse, the scandal is not one of priests and bishops who followed Catholic moral teachings. It is one of priests and bishops who [i]violated[/i] Catholic moral teachings.

Pope Apologizes to Orthodox Christians but Vatican Attorneys Deny Liability


Pope John Paul II used a historic visit to Greece recently to issue a broad apology for the sins of Roman Catholics against the Orthodox Christian faithful. The Pope was attempting to heal the 1,000-year-old rift between the two Churches. The Pope’s apology was widely hailed as a concrete step in the reconciliation of the two churches.

But on May 25 in a San Francisco Federal courtroom the Vatican’s attorneys will defend the Vatican Bank in a lawsuit filed by Orthodox Christian survivors of genocide in World War II Yugoslavia. During World War II over 500,000 Serbs were murdered by the fanatic Catholic regime of Ante Pavelic in Croatia. The leadership of the Croatian regime known as the Ustashe vanished after the Second World War with much of the gold and silver plundered from their Serb victims.

holy church right?

Explain, pray tell, how the actions of those who do not follow the teachings of the Church affect the validity of its teachings?

Machine-gun tactics don't foster meaningful dialogue.
