CNN Claims that the Catholic Church is the "Most Centrally Organized Religious Body"

Obviously the author has never heard of "correllation," whose victims are many. Correllation makes Catholic "central organization" look like amateurs.

I'll borrow a line from another poster (in FCD's post about an after-life)--the LDS Church is a spiritual North Korea now and later (if their ideas about Heaven are serious and not a sick, practical joke).

The media can be real scary.

Catholics more centrally organized than Mormons.

Mormons gave up polygamy in 1890.

Religious Studies courses should be required in college or at least in journalism school.

There's NO WAY the Catholic Church is more centrally organized than the LDS church.

Maybe they weren't counting cults as religious bodies (n/t)

But what about the Mormons?

The whosums?

You know, The Church of Latter-day Jesus, or whatever.

Oh, you mean the group in California?

Utah.

Are they um, centrally organized?

Well.....yeah.

Oh... Well anyway, about those Catholics.

Note -- CNN said most centrally organized "religious body", not "religious corpse".

Wait a minute. The reason the Catholic Church was not having to dish out money for law suits is because they claimed each Diocese was separate and independent.

It's the ultimate way to organize a religion: give direction but not have the responsibility. It's what Mormons hope to do someday as well as Catholics.
