I think most people agree that an awful lot of churches are just plain full of shit, they're practically nothing more than privileged businesses with a license to steal, and way too many of them have been shown to be a rat's nest of abuse and hypocrisy.
And the Catholic Church's history in particular has been rife with shitty deals and coverups and monumentally stupid alliances.
That said, when the leader of the world's biggest cult stands up for peace and principled conduct, and says there's a real problem with the way certain governments are behaving, and my government decides to get shitty with that church - then I do care. I care a lot about that.
Angela gets it right - "Who the fuck does Elbridge Colby think he is?"
