Robert H. Bork on the Catholic Church

With very critical reservations I can recommend Judge
    Robert H. Bork's book as a good read even for an open minded commie
    like myself." Slouching towards Gomorrah " is not without its conservative
    cretinism -the equal of the PC variety -but on the whole it is the work
    of brilliant  CIVILIZED mind.  Those in the news media with a gut hatred
    for the Catholic Church should ponder his observation: " Because it is
    America's largest denomination, and the only one with a strong central
    authority, the Catholic Church can be a major opponent of the nihilism
    of modern liberal culture. "
             ( page 337 )   . I say without conservative bias: the news media
    has been indulging itself in Catholic Church bashing for a long time now.

               Many priests are sinners. What else is new ? And the Christ
    of the Gospels has a zero-tolerance  policy for sinners? To me he just
    seems a little hard on the rich guy who wants to bribe his way into
    Heaven.
              I feel very sorry for thousands of priests who just try to
    be worthy of being under HIS roof.
