FWIW, I was baptized Catholic and raised a Catholic through all my growing up years. I do know what I was taught in the Catholic church and within that context. Other Catholics have taken exception to what I've related but all that ever was what I experienced.
As far as *attacking* the Catholic church, I didn't realize that recognizing sin and pointing it out and condemning it as sin was *attacking* anybody or any thing.
Those molesting priests are wrong. The admitted (by the Church itself) cover up of those priests is wrong. It'd be wrong if any one else did it too.
If that's an attack on the Catholic church then the Catholics on this forum are equally guilty of attacking every single non-Catholic denomination they point out sin and rightly condemn it in. At that point, someone could equitably slap on the label of *anti* or *hater* on them.
Saying one thing and doing another is hypocrisy. And recognizing that is not *attacking* someone else either.
Whatever you realize it to be, I realize you avoided the question:
the least you could do is say what denomination, confession, etc. you belong to or follow - without identifying city, etc. - out of fairness for corresponding comparison and criticism. I think most, if not all, on here have done so. Are you willing to do that?
Are you?
