In reply to the discussion: Pope Francis’ new clothes: Why his progressive image is white smoke and mirrors [View all]I think the RCC has shown itself to be a Criminal Organization. And all who still support it are complicit.
If any other organization had perpetrated the kind of enabling and cover-up that the Vatican did over the pedophilia crimes,it would have been disbanded and shunned by the rest of the World.
I don't know what the answer for people who do not want to reject the teachings but want to reject the Vatican.
If joining a different Church doesn't work, perhaps it's time for a new Church.
