Showing Original Post only (View all)Can anyone point me to any actual persecution or mass discrimination of Catholics in the US today? [View all]
Because it really doesn't exist. Despite all this "last acceptable prejudice" nonsense. Claiming that reminds me of Republicans talking about how white males are so oppressed and discriminated against.
The fact that anyone would compare what basically amounts to people on the Internet saying mean things about the Catholic Church to what LGBT people go through is quite offensive, especially considering how much of the bigotry and discrimination against LGBT people comes from and is promoted by the Catholic Church.
I come from a half-Catholic extended family (well really about a quarter at most Catholic now considering how many people have abandoned the church or converted to something else.) and I have yet to hear anyone in my family ever report being discriminated against in any way for being Catholic. If some people want to claim that some type of modern day Know Nothing movement has great influence in the country and Democratic Party, I'd like to see some examples.
