I dislike organised religion in general, I view all religious ministers and priests with great suspicion, and the Catholic Church is high on my list of organisations I detest.
Having said that, hate is an emotion that does far more harm to the person who hates than it does to the thing or person hated.
Some priests are wicked and chose the job because of the power it gives them over others. Some priests are in the job because they're incapable of doing something more useful and productive. Some priests chose the job because they're deluded enough to believe that an invisible sky-fairy telepathically asked them to do it. Some priests went that route because of family pressures. And there are some who truly believe all the Catholic BS mythology and believe that being a priest makes them a force for good in the world.
Try not to judge people by the uniform they wear or what they say, but rather by what they actually do and the impact they have on the lives of those around them.
