It pains me because I grew up and lived most of my life as a Catholic. It was in Catholicism that I learned about God, which is very ironic considering the direction of the Catholic church as a whole. The ideology does not match up with scripture, but there are people that are Catholic that are not evil, and do love Jesus. sadly I fear they are being led down a dead-end path. Ultimately, we are all accountable for our own decisions and cannot blame someone else for being misguided.
