On a personal note, I am Catholic. I loved going to mass.
I can't bring myself to really celebrate as a Catholic anymore, and I certainly have stopped all monetary donations to the Church.
I just can't accept that my money would go towards the comfortable lifestyle of a child molester, or that it might be used to fund hateful anti-gay-marriage propaganda.
That's not what I believe, and I just can't support it.
I look forward to the day when the Catholic church has purged itself of their corruption, but I think that day is a long way off.
The sad thing is that, no matter the religious institution, it is populated with human beings and is thus utterly corruptible at every level. I think the first step towards a "clean" church is transparency. Complete and total transparency.
