Given the fact that the pope and vatican are actively selling out the religion to those who hate it, how can anyone still defend it?

Conservative catholics have much, MUCH more in common with Islam than they do with the Catholic Church of 2022.

That’s easy. It’s because the pope is not the faith. Christ himself formed the Catholic Church and her followers try our best to follow Christ’s teachings. We also recognize that there exists folly of man. It is through this folly of man that we now have thousands of denominations of Christ’s only church and that we spend so much time arguing over our differences instead of celebrating the things we share.
It is through the folly of man that corrupt leaders corrupted the Church. It is through that same folly of man that people left the Church to form new faiths instead of fighting to fix it. It is through that folly of man that people today believe that the sacraments are a checklist and that Catholics are practicing idolatry.
Truth is that our world is broken due to mans folly. God knows this and chooses to use our brokenness to encounter us and seeks to lift our hearts above this world.
Catholic? He’ll meet you there
Protestant? He’ll meet you there
Agnostic? Yup there
Atheist? He’s waiting
Satanist? He’s still there still waiting to expose your heart to true joy
