LOL!

I think the question, actually, was whether she found Catholics offensive and thus would be hostile to them.

Any Catholic who has been on FR for very long is pretty used to raving Protestant hostility by now! But in general, I don’t think this would be a problem with her; she’s an intelligent, educated Christian adult and not a member of Billy-Bob’s First Church of the Flaming Snakehandler, so I think she’d be fine. Certainly better than, as you say, the pro-abortion, pro-homo, pro-Moslem, anti-Christian, anti-business, anti-American creature now in the WH!

Thanks, guys.

I’m not a Catholic, but I am definitely not an anti-Catholic, either. There are a lot of folks in the Catholic church that I consider to be brethren in the Lord.

I have a good relationship with one of the leaders of the Catholic Congregation in my town. We have had many a great chat going round and round on the Bible.

At one point in one of our discussions, he asked, “How can you know so much about the Bible and not be a Catholic?” To which I responded, “How can you know so much about the Bible and still be a Catholic?”

We had a great laugh together and maintain a good relationship to this day.

Now that is both funny and true!

Am Catholic myself, and will vote for Bachmann because she is a pro-life Conservative.

Exactly

You're getting out of line there ~ that's pretty antagonistic toward the snake handlers. As everybody knows who's had anything to do with them "socially" they are pretty much mainstream Protestants ~ very much like Methodists or Presbyterians ~ but they have this thing about snakes.

There aren't very many of them either ~ the snakes see to that!

As far as Raving Protestant hostility is concerned, I do believe all the principals at Free Republic are, themselves, Roman Catholic! Are you suggesting they aren't good Catholics?
