[Conservative til I die]

Uh, who is surprised that the Vatican would say something abominable in favor of a dictator? Their little inquisition in Spain didn't seem to mind murdering Jews by burning them at the stake in the 1400s and 1500s, so why wouldn't they just fall in love with a modern-day Jew-killer like Arafat? The Vatican is corrupt and always has been. I feel a great swell of sorrow for the everyday folks within the Catholic Church who are actually trying to find and follow God's way. It's sad because they're led by such wicked people, and the common Catholic deserves better.

Ah blow it out your ass, you phony bigot.

Hm. Now exactly what part of what I said made me a "phony bigot?" It's particularly sad that you couldn't come up with any pithy or fact-filled statement to actually refute what I said. Instead you had to resort to cheap profanity which speaks volumes not about the person to whom it is directed but the person who speaks it. If you want to defend a religious leadership, try to do so without embarassing it with foul language. It might help your case more.
