There's something that's always bothered me about the catholic church, and it's long history of sexual abuse, grooming, exploitation, and downright rape of children within the clergy. I always questioned how you follow a faith that is represented by pedophiles, AND to add to this fact, the church outright protects them from any harm. There's a quote in this movie, and it states "The Church is an institution, Mike, made of men. It’s passing. My faith is in the eternal. I try to separate the two." This is the key factor that separates religion and a cult of ideology. Children were, and even though it's a lesser extent, still are being taken advantage of by the church, yet people quite honestly don't give a shit because "the community can't handle it," which to me sounds like complete and utter bullshit. This is communal complicity for SEXUAL ASSAULT, and it still hasn't stopped to this day, unfortunately. Please protect your people and not any large corporation trying to silence and belittle you or your significant other's pain and suffering. Nobody is above the law, even the people who wrote it.
