@vicfroh@mastodon.social There are huge problems with the Catholics, particularly sexual abuse by priests and thinking women's only purpose is about pumping out babies. Those things are not forgivable. But they do take helping the poor a lot more seriously than, say, evangelical Protestants. The Catholic church closest to us runs a food bank and another one close by is a major supporter of homeless folks, collecting clothing and supplies. The cannibalism is crazy, but at least in the US the Catholics stress the Sermon on the Mount and many, not all, protestant churches don't preach it to the point where their followers find the language foreign, "woke", and that faith is all you need, screw the poor because you have a personal relationship with Jesus (atheist here, recovering Catholic).
