I really don't care what her experiences have been. What she heard is not true.

Well, since she was talking about her experiences, then you have shown that truth is a relative term for you.

Because people like you keep bringing it up.

Hey, I'm not the one sending accusatory posts to someone else for the last two days. Why not admit that you cannot possibly know what someone else has heard and seen among their own relatives and leave it at that? It appears that, even with the added links about experiences of OTHER Ukrainian Catholics, like I said, some people cannot tolerate ANY negative criticism about their church. As long as you keep it up, you only continue to prove it.

I see that you had to call in the posse. I don't know if you've put on your moderator pants or something, but you've come into the discussion late swinging your elbows and making false accusations. Maybe you need to go sit down and cool off for a bit.

Well, since she was talking about her experiences, then you have shown that truth is a relative term for you.

No, the truth is not relative. She has made claims that are not true:

So much for unity within Catholicism.

Roman Catholics don't consider Ukrainian Catholics quite good enough and the Ukrainian Catholics know it.

Roman Catholics didn’t consider them *real* Catholics.

Why not admit that you cannot possibly know what someone else has heard and seen among their own relatives and leave it at that?

Because the claims she's making based on some conversation she may or may not have had are not true.

It appears that, even with the added links about experiences of OTHER Ukrainian Catholics, like I said, some people cannot tolerate ANY negative criticism about their church

Fair criticism is tolerated. But I won't sit by letting you or anyone else make untrue claims about the Church. I'm sorry that bothers you, but that's the way it is.

As long as you keep it up, you only continue to prove it.

As long as I defend the Church against untrue claims, I only prove that I am not going to tolerate it.

The Ukrainian Greek Catholics are in full communion with the Church and the Pope. They are fully accepted. That's the truth, and if that bothers you and your posse, I can't help that.
