Much of Christianity has been intentionally corrupted with all sorts of satanic stuff. I am a believer, but so much of modern Christianity is very disturbing once you start looking closely, especially the "evangelicals" sickening corruption, and the gay Catholic priest stuff.
As for the Church, I'd say two things (as a Catholic):
It's more likely for kids to be sexually abused in public schools by teachers
A handful of gay priests doesn't invalidate the entire Church, particularly when their heresy is in no way acknowledged by the Church
To be clear, I point out the first one since it establishes that the "pedo church" shit is basically just slander by people who hate the Church. No one who says this ever points out public schools/teachers, because it's not about the kids for them, but about being against the Church. And the multitude of pedos in all Christian denominations are also always ignored.
So I disagree; the doctrine of the Church is perfect. Imperfect men being in positions of power (where God placed them) does not change this.
