Oh sir, you wound me to the quick, oh verily you do!

To lump me in the same camp as Obama (sniff) oh I simply must make it to the fainting couch in time (crash)!

OK, here’s brass tacks: I don’t hate or disparage anyone because of their religion or locality. But when they come after me by attacking MY religion, then a critical response is in order.

BTW, where does it say that all Catholics are of big city immigrant stock? FWIW, my Protestant critics are younger men who experienced either divorce, spiritual awakening, or both. They’re down on ANYONE who doesn’t believe in predestination. Free will and freedom of choice between good and evil? Fugeddaboutit! They don’t even like Billy Graham. Too liberal.

Anyway, on this website anticatholicism is alive and well.

And firing back is kind of fun. Dominus vobiscum, y’all.

;^)

Yeah, I kind of got the idea that you would rather be compared to Obama than to Primitive Baptists.

OK, here’s brass tacks: I don’t hate or disparage anyone because of their religion or locality.

And yet you did. Which logically means that your claim that you do not do so is . . . well . . . you know.

But when they come after me by attacking MY religion, then a critical response is in order.

I have "come after" no one's "religion." For your information, I disagree with just about every aspect of Catholicism and chr*stianity as a whole. I disagree with tritheism, incarnationism, cosmic dualism, salvationism (as chr*stianity understands it), etc., etc., etc. My attacks on the Catholic Church on this forum are limited to one and only one thing: its illogical, irrational, hypocritical, and sociologically-based war on the literal historicity of the first eleven chapters of Genesis.

I can understand why atheists and naturalists and mormons and hindus and so forth don't accept the literal historicity of Genesis. But the Catholic Church 1)has Genesis in its "bible," 2)claims to believe in creatio ex nihilo (unlike mormons who make no such claim), and 3)continually express their belief in a zillion other things that are just as "scientifically and historically impossible" as anything in Genesis 1-11. There is one and only one logical reason for this: an attitude of haughty derision towards "those knuckle-draggers from the backwoods" who believe it. It is nothing but class snobbery. There is simply no other explanation.

BTW, where does it say that all Catholics are of big city immigrant stock?

Your sneering insults in your earlier post pretty much identified rural America as "the enemy."

FWIW, my Protestant critics are younger men who experienced either divorce, spiritual awakening, or both. They’re down on ANYONE who doesn’t believe in predestination. Free will and freedom of choice between good and evil? Fugeddaboutit! They don’t even like Billy Graham. Too liberal.

So you can't respect anyone who thinks Billy Graham is a liberal? I guess you like your Protestants liberal. But then, most FReeper chr*stians seem to like their moslems liberal as well.

Anyway, on this website anticatholicism is alive and well.

I'm sorry, but you're being a crybaby. If you want to take a look at a religion under constant attack on FR I can give you two examples: islam and mormonism. Islam I can understand. Mormonism I don't agree with at all, but I don't argue with them because they don't claim to believe in creatio ex nihilo. Every single day threads and threads and threads and threads are posted attacking mormonism. There are people here to seem to do nothing but, and they ignore that the Catholic Church shares some of the things they despise about mormonism (some sort of "gentlemen's agreement," I take it). But you Catholics don't know diddly squat about being "under attack" at Free Republic.

And firing back is kind of fun. Dominus vobiscum, y’all.

I'm glad you find attacks on rural America so hilarious. I'd compare you to the liberals again, but since you would consider that a compliment . . .
