“Judas was more zealous in the cause of the enemy than he was in the cause of Our Lord.  Men who leave the Church in like manner seek to atone for their uneasy consciences by attacking the Church.  Since their consciences will not leave them alone, they will not leave the Guide of their consciences alone.  The Voltaire who left the Church was the Voltaire who scoffed.  Their hatred is not due to their unbelief, but their unbelief is due to their hatred.  The Church makes them uneasy in their sin and they fell that if they could drive the Church from the world they could sin with impunity.”  Archbishop Fulton Sheen (Characters of the Passion)
