Ever make personal attacks, why yes you do.

Ever make broad ad hominem attacks, why yes you do.

Do you realize that Scripture was used as justification to torture and kill people. To beat pregnant women to death. To torture people to death unless they converted.

Literacy was limited because the Catholic church did not want people to have the knowledge. Made them easier to control.

All done by Catholics. So you might want to back off and find some grace before you meet Jesus and have to explain it to him.

I see that you are familiar with the history of the American colonies.

You've made some rather boneheaded statements thus far, but this tops them all. I'd suggest that you revise your understanding of history and the reasons for literacy. As well as the entire true cost of literacy. I understand that many Evangelicals believe that it was the evil Catholic Church that imposed Internet controls on the population and stopped them from emailing the Epistles of Paul, and that it wasn't until the original Steve Jobs (Martin Luther) arrived on the scene that people were free to post antiCatholic Scripture on their Facebook accounts.

I thank you for your words of wisdom and will of course comply with your advocated course of action ...the day I get my brain replaced with a cauliflower.
