So when you say Christianity you are including which faiths? Do you include different sects of Lutheranism because they have very different believes and very harsh perceptions of Catholicism? Are they on the outside trying to get under the Christian umbrella? Does it matter that they worship the thoughts and actions of Luther kind of like Smith?

Catholicism is no different than any other Church in that everything comes down to: 'I am right you are wrong' (whip out and measure contest).

As far as skepticism being a "fair game for both" I believe that the good Dr. is asking you and whyme to apply some skepticism in terms of being involved in a faith that has a terrible history of child m0lestation. It is pretty difficult to justify following an infallible pope that has a record of hiding child m0lesting clergy. Just think if you could find a record of Monson doing the same...



For many reasons, I am going to choose to pass on replying (Sorry)

Good idea, it is best to not attempt to justify the unjustifiable...
