Your conclusion is right but your reasons are wrong. The reason catholicism, or more broadly christianity and its offshoots like liberal humanism, is rotten and depraved is because it induces pathological altruism in its host civilization.

1. Boomers gonna boomer. A 1960s Irish scandal satan is using to smear the Church with.
2. After they wrote the new testament they also came up with a book to explain theology for the laymen. Almost every Christian denomination produces a catechism.
3. Everything is a cult, only difference is the Catholic one is one centered around Christ.

Protestants likely have as many if not more cases of sexual abuse as the RCC. It's just that the media doesn't focus as much on some indie fundie churches in the middle of nowhere.
Anthony Davis
Protestantism isn't a religion, it's retarded to lump them all together.
God you leftypol fags on this board are so fucking cancerous.
Zachary Morgan
Are fundie proddies born retarded or does Protestantism turn them into retards?
Xavier White
you orthodox fags roleplay a lot more than any catholics i've seen

Ooh, rare portrait of Erich Honecker!

1. The rate of molestation among Protestant priests in America is almost identical to the rate of Catholic priests, both of which are lower than the general population's rate.
2. Every single part of the Catechism has scriptural justification for it.
3. Papal infallibility means that when the pope is speaking ex cathedra to resolve a theological dispute, he has the final say. They don't get mad at asking questions, they only get mad if you deny Catholic doctrine, refuse to recant, and still claim to be a member of the Church.
Not if you don't worship the idol itself, but understand that it's a representation of something.

>The clergy commit rape over and over again yet the church helps them get off free
Protecting your own is common in any organization. Meanwhile the entire STATE of England is protecting gangs of Muslim child rapists and murders in dozens of cities and punishing the whistleblowers.
And there are just as many incidents of pedophiles in protestant churches as there are in the catholic church and it's half the rate of the general population.
>2. Catechism of the Catholic Church. Instead of justifying their doctrines with scripture, the Papists have made up a whole new book.
Which often cites where in the scripture it comes from. Also guess who wrote the bible.
>3. Cult like structure. The Vatican has whole shape of a cult.
It's shaped like an organization. Like the military, government, or company.
>A central infallible leader,
Papal "infallibility" doesn't mean infallible. A much better word would be "papal finality"; in that he can close an open question and make a final ruling on it. Otherwise we would still be arguing about Arianism till the end of times.
>preventing members from asking questions, etc.
Why are you here if you don't know the first thing about history? There's always theological debates going on.
Yes, if Muslims believe something it means that it is wrong. Idolatry is fine because Islam is against it.

>Why are you here if you don't know the first thing about history? That could be asked of a sizable fraction of Veeky Forums who are only here to shitpost and spread poisonous falsehoods
