Jimmy Swaggart appeared on WWOR for a few consecutive days during which he stated that the Pope was the most evil man alive today and that Catholics are idolaters. The following day he repeated the latter charge along with more anti-Catholic statements.

And here's the link: http://www.catholic-league.net/1996report/media96.htm

Again, tell me how that POS isn't a bigot and how he never says these hateful things......

That the website does not directly quote Swaggart is quite telling. It would be interesting to hear exactly what he said, what words he used and in what context.

But, that would not inflame hatred toward Swaggart, which is clearly the intent of the paragraph.

Sorry, but without direct quotes in context, that blurb is utterly worthless.

I have the highest respect for Dr. Donohue. He is a one-man gang against the anti-Catholic/anti-Christian bigots in the entertainment industry. He ALWAYS wins the debate (or at least every one I have sen televised). But, that paragraph is evidence of nothing.

I watched Swaggart for years. I have also read many tracts and books he has written. Not once have I heard him say or read anything he has written that was hateful toward anybody (unless we accept the liberal definition of the word hate as "disagreement"). As an Pentecostal Christian, his doctrine disagrees with Catholic doctrine in many ways. But, that does mean that he "hates" Catholics. One of the few times I remember referencing Catholics at all was to praise them for believing in the Virgin Birth. Direct quote: "Thank God for the Catholics. They believe it."

But, you have made up your mind to hate the man, which is your right. But, to compare what he has said to mullahs who have openly called for the extermination of all Jews and the murder of all who will not submit to Islam is erroneous.

Have a good day.
