To be frank, the anti-Catholicism that has been permeating this site recently has been very disturbing to me

Me too. I don't think it helps the conservative cause either.

Ok,

So, this may be a shot in the dark. But, I see your posting name is Virgil. Do you know of any good English translations of Dante's Divine Comedy? I've read one, but it is since discontinued/out-of-print, and my parents have my old versions. Any help, as I traverse these many rings of life would be helpful. I just bought a couple of Cardinal Ratzinger books (now the Pope) that I'm really looking forward to reading.

Thanks,

You would think that they would finally come to the conclusion that we are on the same side as Conservatives and Christians. In reality, it seems that they merely tolerate us as long as we vote for those candidates that they like. To them, we are only Christian when we do something they like, and we are Catholic when we do something that they don't like. They pick and choose how/when/why they like us, just like they do with their own beliefs.
