text: Yep... say one thing and do another for 2000 years... what a great example to follow, just what Jesus himself would do.  "Oh,  but official church teaching doesn't support the bad behavior exemplified by certain medieval clerics," you say... well in what universe is "teaching" limited to the written word where actions and behaviors are to be ignored in favor of pious pronouncements uttered by the very perpetrators committing the egregious acts? 
  
  A culture which enables such contorted beliefs and practices needs to be abolished and rebuilt from the ground up... this time with an eye toward Jesus' ultimate admonition to love God and neighbor, a radical shift away from imperial power, control and medieval pageantry.
