Here is Sam Harris on The Daily Show, talking about his new book, “The Moral Landscape.”
Ouch: “The Catholic Church is more concerned about preventing contraception than preventing child rape. It’s more concerned about preventing gay marriage than preventing genocide.”

Really? Its in the doctrine, this guy is speaking utter nonsense. You do not judge a religion by those that fail to practice it. Just because there is genocide going on, which of course should be spoken against (one example is the silent genocide in Congo, of which the Catholic church seems to be the only vocal opposition as well as the only solution for harmony in that nation), but that does not mean you ignore other issues, such as a monumental change in the historical definition of marriage, a fundamental issue in any human society.
