you’re confusing two issues: the actual law of the land, and your dislike of Catholicism.

The law of the land forbids the sort of action the current government is engaging in. That applies whether you’re Catholic, Sikh, Jew, Orthodox, Buddhist, whatever. If you wish to look at it as a narrowly-focused Catholics-only item, you may only do so until the government finds your denomination inconvenient, at which time, you’ll be the next up. Lest you imagine that I am only saying this because I’m Catholic, the answer is no. If this were an attack on you, or JR, or anyone in the country, of this sort, I would have to object. The first amendment covers all of us. Breaking it for one breaks it for all.

As is typically the case any criticism is labelled "dislike". In this instance it is the hypocrisy of RC's that I don't appreciate.

I'm well aware of this and I am also well aware that when the govt attacks my church the RCC will not come to our aid if it doesn't benefit the RCC.
