Interfaith Group

I can see where you are coming from, from your view point. If all religions are false, than picking the one that suits you best is probably the smart thing to do, because the decision has no more importance than picking a gym or a country club or a gaming group. You might like it, you might not, and if you don't changing isn't any big deal.

That said Catholics presumably believe that the faith they believe in is the correct one - even if they have issues with how that faith works in the real world. There is something about the Catholic Church, unique to the Catholic Church, that they believe in that is important to them. Now you aren't likely to see what that is (and as I'm not a Catholic, I may not be able to either) but one has to presume that they see it.

Which means that some people are going to stick with the Catholic Church despite the "torture" you mention, and other people are going to decide that they don't need to stick with the Catholic Church and find another faith to practice. That's their choice.

But I'm going to go out on a limb and speculate that you would argue that sticking with the Catholic Church and trying to reform it is the wrong choice.
