People who are always tearing down another faith but never have anything to say about their own speak for themselves.

It does speak volumes, only not what they intended.

It's consistent with the admonition to not eat food offered to idols ~ simply because that would give the pagans the wrong impression ~ not that we think it's any sort of special food.

These two elements are sometimes misused by the Islamofascist and Leftwingtard enemy to argue that we shouldn't do anything to antagonize the Moslems ~ as if it's our fault Moslems are easily antagonized.

BTW, I ignore the narrow group that start from the premise that Catholics and Catholicism are somehow demon driven. You should too. Don't let them take the high ground.

The Diocese of Scranton and Marywood University refused to host a conservative Catholic speaker this weekend after the organizations determined that he had expressed views at odds with the school's and church's values, they said on Thursday.

What, he believes Noah actually existed or something?

"The Catholic church teaches us to respect all people, regardless of their faith tradition," the diocese said in a statement.

Except for "bobble-totin' snake-handlers, that is. Other than that all that matters is "that religion in which all men agree, that is to be good men and true."

Other than these two issues I'm afraid I don't share your commitment to eighteenth century-style "religious freedom" (otherwise known as "the 'right' to practice idolatry"). Ironically, I have a great deal in common with the Catholics who despise me so much. They simply worship the wrong G-d, have the wrong "messiah," and can't seem to accept the fact that G-d doesn't lie. Other than that, unless someone tries to compel me implicate myself in idolatry, I have no objections to a "benevolent dictatorship."

Voris was accused of messing around with up to 8 women

WHAT?!?

Where, when and how was Voris accused of this?

That should have read
"Voris WASN'T accused of messing around with up to 8 women."
Oh, never mind.
