Reply #104: Not me. It validates most of what I know about Catholicism

[tom_paine]

Witch Trails (hundreds of thousands of innocents killed)
Jew Burnings and Blood Libels (more hundreds of thousands of innocents murdered)
The Crusades (now enjoying a revival--my favorite part of the First Crusade Story is where the Crusaders marched through modern-day Bulgaria...there they were met by Arab-looking people who they slaughtered also by the thousands...WUPS! They were COPTIC CHRISTIANS)
Oh, and let's not forget the Chruch's 1992 admission that the Earth wasn't Center of the Universe (now, I am all in favor of Enlightenment but isn't 500 years too late a bit much to be considered "enlightenment").
Child molestation and the COVERUPS!

Oh, there's SO MUCH MORE, but you get my idea.

NOTE: This is NOT a blanket condemnation of Catholics. There are Good People in every walk of life and clearly there is much positive about the Modern Chruch.

However, this latest Bushevik Frenzy resembles so many frenzies of long ago.

At least this one, for the moment anyway, isn't as grotesquely violent as the Witch Trials of the 15 and 1600s...
