But it's not the only problem. There's a laundry list of problems, including

• Dubious financial transactions.

• The kind of dubious connections to the second world war that have been closely scrutinised elsewhere in European society.

• Consistent political support for criminals, like Bush the Lesser and Corruptioni, who operate under a rather unusual definition of rule of law.

• Promoting hostile foreign meddling in the internal affairs of sovereign states.

• Lying about reproductive health in countries where the prevalence of lethal sexually transmitted diseases make such lies amount to little more than common murder.

• Hatemongering against LGBT people.

• Support for unsavoury regimes in Latin America.

• Consistent sexism.

The majority of the listed points are matters of stated, official policy. Some of them it even boasts of when it's sure no civilised member of the congregation is around to object.
