ALERTER'S COMMENTS:
anti catholic bigotry
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Mon Apr 16, 2012, 11:07 PM, and the Jury voted 1-5 to LEAVE IT ALONE.
Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: Where would DU be without anti-Catholic bigotry? If you're not hating Catholics just because of what they believe, you're not a liberal, now are you? While I'd love to hide this bullshit, I have to accept that similar stuff doesn't get hidden, so I can't vote to do so here. I do enjoy watching the same anti-Catholic folks get their panties in a bunch over insults Islam, however.
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: A Bors cartoon? Alerted? Give me a break.
Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: I think the alerter is a little confused as to what the word "bigotry" means...
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.

There is nothing wrong with posting a comic pointing out the poster's views.

(5,963 posts)They just seem a little off base, even though I support their vote.

(49,533 posts)ANY published word or image that is critical of Catholicism or their pope is "anti-Catholic bigotry."
It's the same defense mechanism that used to bring out the rope and kindling whenever an opposing thought manifested itself.

(22,340 posts)constantly tell us that the whack job right-wing of Christianity does not represent them and is, in a lot of cases, not the true Christians. But an atheist posts a cartoon making the point that the right-wing of Christianity is whack-a-doodle, and people go off their rocker.
I mean, do people actually think that god gives a shit about what the cartoon is talking about?

(5,436 posts)of the Catholic church, and the church heirarchy covers it up, then eposing, publicizing the abuse is bigotry. Got it.
