  Oh, come on, MSW! This may be the most vapid rationalization of organized religion hemorrhaging members I've ever read.  How about, we got smart? We reject patriarchy, misogyny, exclusivity, refusal to be held accountable, ubër-institutionalization to the point of ignoring the Gospel in favor of stupid Law, propagation of medieval theology that ignores modern scientific discoveries, especially in the realm of human behavior and any contribution from women EVER, gross financial mismanagement, continuing to exclude marriage for ministers while numbers of priests fall to crisis levels, etc., etc. 
  
  If your premise is true, what does it say about a global Church that its most promising members are uneducated and and likely to say that way due to poverty, and therefore will continue to accept the unacceptable, including fairy tales?  Give me a break.
