It’s in the same category of delusional, empty hatred of Catholicism as the KGB/Hochhuth/Cornwell slander on display here.

If "things in the same category" makes something on-topic and fair game to bring up, I can think of a lot of "same category" things that we could discuss in this thread, re historical Papal behaviors and politics. You really don't want this thread to go down that path, do you?

This thread has bulldozed that path and installed an eight-lane freeway.
