The rules of this website make a distinction between religeous affiliation and race-&-ethnicity.
As a matter of fact, protection from religious discrimination is the founding block of this nation.
Along with the freedom of speech. Including especially speech opposed to some religeous foundation. The witch trials, the pogroms, and the persecutions of Bruno & Galileo had no small impact on the educations of our founding fathers.
The only problem I have with questioning the religious beliefs of others on this website is it is divisive and not in keeping with the motives of its creators.
You are welcome to any private thoughts about religion you may have. You are not welcome to such protections regarding the impactful public actions of church officials, and the theological bases for them. Such are, quite obviously, fair game for FR.
But if you feel the need to do so, I guess that's your right. Where I have a problem is when people come here specifically to slander the Catholic Church with lies and exagerations.
Religeous threads are pretty minor sidenote to me; I have not come here specifically to slander the Catholic Church, and I have not done so--truth is an adequate defense against charges of slander. I have committed a few wrongs on the numbers against PIUS XII, but the basis of my charges regarding the accords, in Matthew, the rest of the Gospels, the doctrine of salvation through the crucifixion and resurrection vs. the shema, and the behavior of the catholic church and the christian countries of Europe, right up to the time of the Holocaust, remain largely unaddressed, because, basically, it's well-known historical truth, and it's unanswerable. That is why my interlocutors here are fixated on PIUS's reputation--because it's safe ground. Sort of like the joke about the guy looking for his keys on the football field, instead of the grating the street where he dropped them...because the light is better on the football field.
That sort of attack is unique to the Catholic religion and the attackers are protected.
It is not unique, and the attackers are just as subject to being questioned and condemned in these threads as the attackees.
Fair enough. If Jews can change their vantage point on every discussion from one of enthnicity to one of religion as it suits the argument, I hereby declare that all Catholics are also subject to the Holy See, which is, in fact, a nation. Therefore any attack on Catholicism is also an attack on the Catholic "race" as it were. Wait, I have a better idea, why don't we just treat race and ethnicity as equals the way good liberals say the Constitution intended? It is much less complicated and confusing.
Your reliance on events that happend hundreds of years ago as an indication of the policies of the Catholic Church are no better than your insistence that there is Anti-Catholic sentiment in the Gospel. Even if things were interpreted that way at one time, they aren't none now, so why waste the energy?
