I should have paid more attention to Comparative Religions as a freshman in college. I had a good book but threw it away
All I can speak to is from my experience being raised an Irish-Catholic and attending Catholic schools with nuns. I think I absorbed the moral teachings of Jesus, despite my early realization that the nuns were very mean spirited, unhappy people. Didn't take long after that to see the scriptures were twisted by almost all to justify their own actions. And, yes, pedophilia is an integral part of the Roman Catholic Church's culture, I believe. And that includes the current Pope
