Yeah, that Catholicism in China and India for instance... Still, the question is unanswered... I think the Muslin/Jew issues are causing just a bit more trouble than the Catholics not adhering to the Churches anti birth control desires... |

For the record, I am not but I know many who are and virtually all of them practiced contraception methods that are "forbidden" by the church. For many, church teachings and traditions are a buffet ... take what you like and leave the rest. I see nothing wrong with that. |

If the legislation promoted the killing of babies, then the Church did as it should. The Church will oppose some legislation and promote the other.

Those bingo games and carnivals bring in a lot of revenue which has nothing to do with the church's mission. |
