i'm not one who said romney wasn't a viable candidate. i was using him as an example to illustrate that catholics are not the only ones seeing criticisms of their religion.

and no, catholics do not agree with all the churches teachings-read any subject in which the catholic church weighs in, and you'll see that not all members agree~ the subjects of pre-marital sex, abortion rights, same sex marriage, and birth control for starters.
