Although one wonders if it's worth attempting to reason with you, there's nothing whatsoever Nazi-like about my comment ... as opposed to your blatantly anti-Catholic diatribe.

Aside from noting numerous apparently Jewish FReepers pinged the article - btw, written by a Jew who's a friendly acquaintance - without negative comment, let's look at what I essentially said:
Neither faith community is perfect, we should be free to fairly criticize each other & try to get along like the family we are.

Here are your words from your earlier post.

"I'd agree with you to the extent that it's fair & legitimate criticism of secular Jews to say they disingenuously & hypocritically use false charges of anti-Semitism to evade accountability for their self-evident racism, routine nepotism & generally pro-communist sympathies.

Surely, when we regularly see secular Jews (e.g. radical feminists) acting as apologists for Islamofascists, there's something awfully wrong with that picture - on multiple levels! - & political correctness, much less unconditional love, shouldn't preclude pointing it out?
"

But let's rewrite your commentary and replace "Jews," as you put it, with Catholics, and "anti-semitism" with "anti-Catholic bigotry" (worn out phrase around here).

We all know as to the flames that would get from Catholics here, if it weren't a reply to your comments against Jews. So spare me your hypocritical Jew bashing and victimology on the part of your own religion.

I was a Christian, BTW, before the new propaganda war against the Jews was started by both leftists/liberals and conservatives in early 2004.

"...as opposed to your blatantly anti-Catholic diatribe."

The following was the only content about Catholics in my reply, and you called it an "anti-Catholic diatribe." Your accusation is incredible but is very frequently seen here.

From the CIA World Factbook (about the USA:
"Religions:
Protestant 52%, Roman Catholic 24%, Mormon 2%, Jewish 1%, Muslim 1%, other 10%, none 10% (2002 est.)
"

Congress more religiously diverse; Catholics still well represented [Most are C.I.N.O.'S]]
Catholic News Service/USCCB ^ | Jan-16-2007 | By Nancy Frazier O'Brien

"Catholics remain the largest denominational group in Congress, with 155 members -- 25 in the Senate and 130 in the House. But there are fewer Catholic Republicans in both houses since the 109th Congress and many more Catholic Democrats."
