OK Woody I am going to have to give you the long version since you are undoubtably not an older Catholic.
Here's the story.
In the 1930s 1940s and 50s there were stories spread by protestants about tunnels constructed between the priest houses and the convent and various sexual stories circulated. The Catholics took umbrage with these stories and castigated the people who were spreading them.
But recent revelations show some of this was true. I was just spoofing the Catholics who for years castigated the protestants about circulation stories about the priests and nuns, but now because of the documented horror stories about the priests sexual escapades, the Catholics have to eat crow.
So I was not calling protestants filthy and hateful, it was to remind older Catholics what they called them in an earlier period of time.
