I agree with many things that have been said and disagree with much more... but is it necessary to continue bashing the Roman Catholic tradition? I think not. It's been said over and over ad nauseam.
If you want a flip side view of human tragedy, I would consider reading up on the Sacking of Rome by the German hordes of Martin Luther. Their aim was to make the Catholics feel the wrath of hell on earth before they were killed. Never was there a time in the history of mankind that humans were more barbaric than what those who sacked Rome in the name of Martin Luther wreaked on a populous. Attila the Hun and Genghis Khan would have been touched.
The Catholic Church is not the problem.
edit: the spelling of the word "hordes" previously spelled "hoards" Would hate to mix anyone up on whether the Germans were trying to hoard Martin Luther but I am not sure how Germans would do that. You know... context/words.. forest/trees, that kind of thing.
