Re 20 Catholicism isn't receptive to truth. As I recall, humanists have never burned anyone at the stake, never persecuted any woman as a witch (and don't even worry about black cats or transubstantion), and generally have a better record in morality.

BS&W. The men who invented the guillotine and modern totalitarianism were "humanists. The Terror was far more destructive of life than the Inquisition. Nor were they always "humane" in their methods of murder. St. Just executed Catholics in the Vendee by crowding them onto a boat and sinking it in the river.
