-Men molesting young boys (mainly their priests)
(There could be more, but that is is as far as my Professor went)

Does your Church have a ...
St. Francis of Assisi?
Mother Teresa?
St. Therese?
and more than 1,500 other saints like them?
May the Lord's peace be with you?

That exists with all religious groups, minus the priest molestations of course. I have seen more teenage pregnancy in the Pentecostal and Baptist churches though, so I wouldn't say that would be accurate. As far as premarital sex and shacking up that covers every religion.

That's not just Catholics, that is everyone. They are generally more religious you are just using these thing to prove some point but in general they are not any woes than any other religious sect, or people in general. Maya (The Goddess of Illusion) tests those who try to Get closer to God. She knows our insincerity. For the original teachings of Jesus before King Constantine changed so many things in the Bible google gospelofthenazirenes.com You will be amazed what he changed. (He took our karma, reincarnation, vegetarianism, and he proclaimed souls go to hell eternally Jesus said no one goes to hell eternally.

As catholics have more then a billion members in their church that increases the chance of hypocritical members, no? I find that funny since most American protestants I have met are into all those minus molesting boys.

There are many things wrong with Catholicism. I could go on-and-on with the Catholic bashing, but the answer to your question is "no". One cannot stereotype or generalize based on the faults on a minority. Do you think it is a religious thing to wish ill, or even kill non-believers in your faith? Yes....examine Islam. You may, one day, be in their gunsights, or be a victim of a suicide bomber.

No, they are the most religious. God tells them that they can do whatever they want. Catholics are not perfect, just forgiven. They can erase all sins in a 1 minute confession on Sunday, and be free to do it again the next week.

My very best, lifelong friend is Catholic. She has never read the Bible; did not know that Jesus had half-brothers; does not know who Paul is...etc.
I think because they do not actually study the Word of God; they seem to be more fearless. And they think they can buy their way out of hell.
Personally, I think Catholicism is a cult and I fully expect to see the Anti-Christ come directly from the Holy Roman Catholic Church.
But, I could be wrong.....it wouldn't be the first time.
