I am also Roman Catholic. I agree with Soulmaster, there is corruption in the church but that's true of every church and of every organization of people. A Catholic just has to remember that your faith isn't in the church as an organization of people but in God and His Church as the body of Christ. Have faith in the teachings and in the Eucharist and don't let the corruption of others drive you away from the spiritual gifts the mass provides. Personally, I have great respect for Pope Francis because I think he's trying to remind people what their faith is truly about and deal with some of the misunderstanding of and corruption of the church itself.
