Of course, it is possible, (hadn't the thought occurred?) to actually criticize the people and not the faith, isn't it?

Try not to get lost within a thread.

The initial discussion that brought about the "Catholic bashing" charge was from another poster on #161 which was about smug, hypocritical Catholics (ring a bell?) from another Catholic poster -- not about Catholicism. but those who call themselves Catholic.

You come along with the

After all, did the faith fail the people or did the people fail the faith?

Well, duh.

the fact that this concerns a catholic school is largely irrelevant, as the problem is irresponsible parenting which crosses all religious boundaries. to fixate on the particular denomination is to miss the point.

Don't get lost in a thread? Check yourself there, buddy...

Read post #161 again...more slowly this time...also, before "jumping in", you might want to familiarize yourself with some of the back and forth...you seemed to have missed it.

You came up with this gem:

"If you are secure in your faith, you wouldn't have been so jumpy at some valid criticism --not of all Catholicism but of some of the rich Kennedy-type Catholics this poster mentioned.? You not only gave a shot...but you clearly misunderstood the poster #161, who by the way is NOT
"another Catholic poster" as you claimed. Again, if you had understood the post, you would have seen 161 as a former, and obviously bitter Catholic....

"After all, did the faith fail the people or did the people fail the faith?"

Duh? You seem to be unable to comprehend what this means...maybe it will come to you later on, as the meaning has obviously escaped you.

Well, duh
