Bigotry, of any kind, is normally the result of ignorance. I have known
people who think Northerners are more evil then Jews, Catholics and Blacks.

This just goes to show you that some hatred and bigotry is justified. ; )

Doug,

The Catholic Church does not meddle in my ability or any other non
Catholics to use birth control. I have never heard of them trying to
interfere with non Catholics using any method of contraception. If you
are a Catholic, who wants to use contraceptives you either ignore their
rule, or you decide not to be a Catholic.

I had not heard the Catholic Church had banned gay priests. I thought
they had insisted upon celibate priest, and no one every asked what kind
of sex they were giving up, but I could be wrong. ; ) I had heard they
banned pedophiles, which is a good thing. ; ) What makes you think
they ask priest their sexual preference before they let them into the
"club"?

You seem to be grasping at straws. Your problem seems to focus on the
fact that you do not like "clubs" and you do not like the Catholic Church
because it is a big club with lots of rules.

Doug is displaying the typical ignorance of a anti catholic bigot.

Well, let's see: The church still thinks it can meddle in family
planning, specifically contraception. Since quite a few economic and
environmental problems are the direct result of overpopulation, I'd say
that qualifies as an offense that continues right to this day. Let's
see....what else. Oh..yeah...they won't ordain gay priests*, even though
the primary function of the clergy is to interpret the meaning of life
and morality, and gay people are as likely to have valid, enlightening
insights as anyone else. There's another offense.

* At least not openly. snicker
