What makes you think that lying about someone else’s faith is a morally justifiable way to convince people of your opinions?

Could you show us the lie /lies in the article?

"Appeal to their works"

No Catholic has ever asserted himself to be in a state of justification by appealing to any "work" that he has performed. To make such an appeal or such an assertion is completely alien to a normal Catholic's ethos and would actually fall quite squarely under the sin of presumption. If someone in my parish said: "Hey guys, I am justified before God because I volunteered at the soup kitchen last week!" he would be considered unbalanced.
