I don’t hate Catholics. I have family members who are Catholic.

I hate child molesters and those that cover up for them.

You have Irish in your nick.

Aren’t you appalled by what happened in Ireland???

TENS OF THOUSANDS OF VICTIMS

Sexual , physical, and mental abuse at the hands of those the Catholic Church.

“John Kelly, co-founder of Irish Survivors of Child Abuse, said: “In our view we were let down in terms of promises of inquiries, reform and most importantly of all the Vatican continuing not to acknowledge that any priest or religious found guilty of child abuse would face the civil authorities and be tried for their crimes in the courts.””

...sir or madam, many things appall me, including the many flaws I observe in myself...and in that regard, to go about beating my chest about how appalled I am about others actions would smack of hubris and immense self satisfaction, both of which are inimical to moral formation...
...so let me rephrase...you don’t hate Catholics, you hate people who do bad things, and you likewise hate those whom you infer do not hate them as much as you do...
...fair enough, I guess...
