This is some spectacular hand wavery right here... his point was that if you're financially supporting the Catholic church, you're giving money to an organization responsible for fomenting the rape of children, and then protecting and sheltering their rapists, while simultaneously passing moral judgment on gay people because of who they are and who they happen to love. That doesn't seem like a good way to be spending your money.
If your argument is that they also do a lot of good charity work in the community, fine - then perhaps your money is best directed to the many other charities helping people every day without also fomenting rape and preaching bigotry against good people. It's not like there are a shortage of less institutionally awful options for your charitable time and dollar.
