Your cartoon is behind the times. There are now SIX Roman Catholics on the Supreme Court, although Roman Catholics only make up a little over 20% of the American population.

And somehow Roman Catholics STILL whine about their toes being stepped on.

As Scripture informs us, Christians don't pray to statues, believe in "another Christ," nor consider anyone to be a "co-redeemer."

(Cue Petronski's gratitude...)

When you run out of argument, post pictures. The “chat” ladies must be at lunch.

Aw, how sweet.

You were thinking of me while trashing the Catholic Church.

Happy to be aboard.

So is anti Catholic bigotry.

There are now SIX Roman Catholics on the Supreme Court, although Roman Catholics only make up a little over 20% of the American population.

About 24%, according to http://www.america.gov/st/diversity-english/2008/March/20080317160257zjsredna0.8236048.html. Roughly one in four. Only one Catholic President in history, yet we now have six Catholic judges. Interesting. Do you have a theory on it?

And somehow Roman Catholics STILL whine about their toes being stepped on.

Some people whine, some post in multicoloured, multisized, multifonted, garish whines, others merely engage in posting. When the dialogue used here comes pretty well identical to mid 1800s American antiCatholic bigotry, then we receive that dialogue in the same manner as it was used then. Terms like Papist and Romanist were used by such as the Know Nothing Party and the KKK and by the cartoonist whose drawing I posted a short while ago.

As Scripture informs us, Christians don't pray to statues, believe in "another Christ," nor consider anyone to be a "co-redeemer."

Scripture and Sacred Tradition is to be used in its entirety; Jesus left us His Church, not any written word. The only words that we know of that Jesus wrote were in the dust. His teachings - the living Church of Christ, not words in a book - are what He left for us.
