I went to catholic school until 3rd grade, i attended church regularly and went to CCD. I never encountered any creepy priests, in fact a few of them were pretty progressive and open minded. The nuns were another story, most of them were tight asses. I guess I just happened to be in a normal parish. Thats the thing, I think a few isolated incidents are giving the entire organized catholic religion a bad name. You can't judge a religion by a few bad apples. We all know there is good in bad in every group.
I'm pretty much a non-practicing catholic now that takes a little bit of wisdom from all religions. I guess i'm pretty much agnostic. I think organized religion is the cause of most of the conflict and killing throughout history and today.
By the way, best thread in awhile. This kind of discussion is what i've been fighting for.
