Steve Shaw: "That is not true. Catholicism and its institutional structures have a good, firm grip in much of Central and South America, the Philippines and in large parts of Africa. State laws on sexuality, birth control and abortion often follow Catholic doctrine closely. You may well be seeing a soft-centred version of Catholicism among your articulate, middle-class neighbours, but that is most decidedly not how it is elsewhere. Take off those blinkers."

So who is FORCING them to be Catholics??
...as opposed to those who want to FORCE people to be 'socialists'??

It's THEIR business, not yours, or mine.
