#1 That's because catholic church is dead and rotting since the beginning of the 20th century, even if it is still numerically the proeminent christian faction. It has become a master of appeasement (remember the siege of Nativity ?), even if it means apologizing for the crusades, the cathars, the inquisition, the evangelization, etc, etc, ad nauseam. And nobody care anyway.
Pope John Paul II was very firm and courageous vs communism, but he failed to reform (a "Vatican III" would be much needed), and his sponsor, the ultra-conservative Opus Dei, is blind and deaf to the atheist/agnostic state of the western catholic world.

And if you doubt it, we'll blow your children's school bus up, dirty infidels........
