I read most of that book recently while on a business trip. I havent finished yet, and Im not really sure I will. It is not one of his better works. Its not so much its subject matter that bother me, its just not written very well. Its a pretty harsh commentary on the catholic church (and society in general) in that era, but the church is made up of people, just like any other organization.
