Next time you see someone on this board criticize Al Qaeda, the French, etc...make sure you tell them that those people shouldn't be expected to learn about Americans since they aren't American themselves.

As I see it, people who choose not to learn about other faiths, yet presume to criticize them, represent a sad combination of arrogance and ignorance. It's shameful behavior.

I agree, although I would NOT agree anyone who's not a Catholic is unAmerican - if that's what you mean. Other faiths are just as American as Catholics.
Each can choose their own faith as long as they don't bother the others about it. Christ is the answer. All the rest is pomp and decoration.

You say this:

"Each can choose their own faith as long as they don't bother the others about it."


But earlier you say this:

"You know why that is? Most people think you worship a mortal - Mary. Everything is Mary, not Christ. There's Mary's beads, statues, prayers, ornaments of Mary, but very little has to do with the one who bought you.
I always thought the Catholics made Mary their Goddess. That's all I ever saw. If one listens closely, they'll notice Mary is used to get to Christ in the end."



So why do YOU bother Catholics with this calumny?

That isn't what I mean at all. My comment was intended to demonstrate that those who condemn Catholics without understanding us are no better than those who condemn America without understanding it.
