Because the Vatican do seem to have it down cold. Trying to draw attention away from the Vatican's mistakes over sex by bringing up race, the other area where the church is widely thought to have covered itself with shit during the twentieth century.
Mind you, more generally I'd day that the church's problem wasn't that it was doing more bad stuff recently, or even that people minded more about bad stuff (though that's actually true), but that they weren't allowing any weighting for good stuff - that the semi-divine powers that priests used to claim aren't credible anymore, and without them they don't have a good defence against their enemies.
