Bill Donohue comments on apologists for Muslim violence:
In the wake of an enfeebled attempt by Ben Affleck, Rosie O’Donnell, and Whoopi Goldbergall Catholic bashersrising to the defense of Muslims accused of barbarism, we now have the spectacle of Nicholas Kristof, a relentless Catholic critic, saying in the New York Times that Muslims had nothing to do with any bloodbaths in the 20th century.
During and after World War I, Muslims murdered 1.5 million Christian Armenians out of a total population of 2 million. In 1971, 2.5 million Hindus were murdered by Muslims in E. Pakistan. Don’t these 4 million innocent men, women, and children count, Mr. Kristof?
These two genocides, along with the genocides committed by atheist regimes in Hitler’s Germany, Stalin’s Soviet Union, Mao’s China, and Pol Pot’s Cambodia, are far and away the most violent demonstrations of purist ideologies in the 20th century. Not to acknowledge this is criminal.
These apologists have no problem insulting, mocking, deriding, and bashing Catholic priests because a tiny minority were molesters: one out of 100,000 priests in the last half century (a total of 149) accounted for over a quarter of all alleged clergy abuse. Yet when large swaths of Muslimsall over the worldjustify murdering Christians, Jews, converts, and women adulterers, these same Catholic haters rush to defend the blind followers of Muhammad. And while we properly condemn Holocaust deniers, we still tolerate 9/11 deniers, a disproportionate segment of whom are Muslims.
Affleck, O’Donnell, and Goldberg are lightweights who know nothing of what they speak, but Kristof knows better. Which is why his column, “The Diversity of Islam,” is all the more despicable. Sadly, when it comes to endorsing sharia law, which is a religious expression of totalitarianism, there is more that unites Muslims than separates them.

Ping!
Maybe they’re Muzzie apologists because they figure by being such that the savages will somehow leave them alone.
Snake handler.
There are tares and wheat in all denominations. We need to stop shooting at each other, world is doing a good job at targeting the whole church...
They are probably hoping to be the last ones to be thrown to the crocodiles.
I bet they’d squeal reeeeal good if they were the beheadees.
Whoopi ‘specially. Rosie would faint. Chicken bleep.
Exactly so.
“Its hard to feel sorry for Catholics - like Obama voters, they pushed for this.”
Pushed for what, exactly?
Hate to tell you since you know so much that isn’t true, but it was the Popes that created the Crusades.
Myself dealing with the true believers.
Don’t take my word for it - go to CatholicAnswersLive .org - It’s full of pompous, self righteous liberal Catholics talking down to everyone who dare disagree.

I’m a lapsed Catholic myself but your post made me laugh.
You go to a website that is full of pomposity and then complain?
Don’t go there.

“religion as being for the weak minded”
So is being a liberal and an atheist. Weakest minds ever. Retarded level IQ.
You asked for an example, I gave you one.
“You asked for an example, I gave you one.”-
Not me.

Excellent collage.
“Its hard to feel sorry for Catholics - like Obama voters, they pushed for this.”
Catholics pushed for Muslim violence? You’re not making any sense.
