"Has there ever been something that you vehamently disagreed with, that your priest said during mass? "
I have never, ever heard a priest say something as offensive as "the federal government invented the AIDS virus to kill blacks". If I heard a priest say that, I'd be gone that second. SURE AS HELL, I wouldn't be calling that kook my spiritual advisor, and I wouldn't let him marry me or baptize my kids.
Rev Wright is not a rogue priest within the Black Liberation Theology religion. He is a hero within that religion.
"If so would you switch parishes?"
Damn right I would. And if the religion believed what the priest said, I'd switch religions.
I'm not brainwashed by Catholicism. I choose to be Catholic because I have decided that Catholicism fits my beliefs. When Catholicism stops fitting my beliefs, I'll stop being Catholic.
For example, I'm not pro-life because I'm Catholic. Rather, I chose Catholicism because I am pro-life. If the church changes its position on abortion, I leave the church, I won't become pro-choice.
I'm not a lemming, and I'm not a hypocrit.
