To: Polycarp IV; little jeremiah

First of all, you need to respect the fact that people who post are just names on a screen to some of us. I didn't have the inside knowledge of this person as you have and couldn't know her background nor her intent. I just read words in a post. I didn't even know "Jeremiah" was a she, let alone a Hindu. To me she sounded like another Catholic all too eager to apologize for the Pope.

That said, I apologize if I have offended someone of another faith who was trying to be helpful. But the real issue for Catholics is what this Fatima incident portends, not how we can better understand the Hindu religion. To my mind it portends heresy and sacrilege and illustrates conclusively that people at the top are not true Catholics. That is anger-provoking--and I probably was a little curt with her as a result--but meant no offense.
