  Absolutely NOT. Not when those precepts are hooked up with the violations of the laws of God (Ten Commandments) and the teachings of Jesus Christ. 
  One can easily argue that the church ended it's covenant with God and Christ from the very beginning when it adopted it's hatred and grave disparagement of the Jews and of women. And certainly in the fourth century when it was seduced by Satan and his entreaties of 'earthly power'. 
  I am certain our college priest professors would think the same, because that IS what they taught us.  
  Namely, that one cannot use ignoble(evil) means to achieve ones goals. The ends does not justify the means. 
  Sorry, but I cannot see any way around that precept of Catholic philosophy no matter how much I try to believe in favor of the church. 
  Earthly power has corrupted the church.
