Thank God this doesn't apply to the Catholic Church!

Damn, and I thought I was disenchanted with organized religion!

I mean, sure it often serves to institutionalize faith, which should by it's very nature be personal. And sure, numerous religious authorities have abused their stations throughout history, but a case for religion ruining the world? That's a stretch.

Religious (or anti-religious in the case of China) intolerance is what ruins this world, IMO.
