text: The bishops were chosen by God, acting through the Pope, to tell you how to live your life, who to vote for, and how to treat others.  They have the correct chromosomal make-up to reflect Jesus, who was a straight white man, and the approved medieval wardrobe to represent the church Jesus founded in Rome.  They know latin.  They were willing to make any sacrifice to protect the reputation of the church, no matter how many children were hurt.  They are capable of saying one thing, while doing something completely different.  Many of them were handpicked by a Saint!  How many more reasons do you need to follow their directions?
