"....”You're a bigot and a Catholic basher"

At least you got part of that right.

We Catholics pray a prayer called the Confeteor in which we ask forgiveness for our sins and cite them as our "thoughts, our words, what we have done and what we have failed to do".

The anti-Ctholics who frequent this forum, in numbers disproportionate to their actual population, obviously spend many tens of thousands of hours digging for dirt and railing against any and all things Catholic. But can anyone explain the complete absence of evidence in their posting histories of any condemnation of abortion? Can anyone explain, within the boundaries of their conscience, how the greater evil is the doctrinal differences held by Catholics in the worship of God than the murder of innocents? I think we all know the answer to those questions.

In their few waking moments away from the Religion Forum have they personally done anything to stop abortion at the local, state, or national level? Have they written to or petitioned politicians and civic leaders? Have they organized to obstruct access to abortion? Have you lobbied for legislation, actively supported platforms or politicians opposed to abortion? Have they put themselves in any physical, legal, or financial risk in support of their beliefs? Or do they simply believe that some children are predestined to be terminated in the womb by mothers predestined to sin?

No doubt the sins of the Borgias Popes and pederast priests are deplorable, but they can be no worse than bloviating on the internet while being tacit accomplices in a modern holocaust of biblical proportion.

There are only a few posters that I find it a total waste of time to respond to, you’ve reminded me you are amongst them.

Thank you for your post.

Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.

Though they have fallen away from the True Church, we shall pray for their reconciliation and welcome them with open arms upon their return.

I don't know who these straw-man "anti-Ctholics" are that you talk about, but there's no "complete absence" of threads or conversation condemning and discussing abortion in my posts. On the other hand, I don't find you having posted even a single thread on the subject of abortion in your entire history on FR.

Then you need to get off the RF more often and onto wagglebee's pro-life, moral absolutes threads more often, which BTW, I don't ever recall seeing you on.

Both metmom and RnMomof7 are active on pro-life threads; however, there are others who I have seldom if ever seen on any threads where they weren't spewing anti-Catholic bigotry.
