"Out damn spot!" The obsessive haranguing of Catholics and attempts by "PROTESTANTS" to provoke Catholics to anger and a censure of Catholics by the mods is akin to watching Scene 5 of Macbeth over and over and over again. If you recall the guilt over the murder of the King of Scotland has driven Lady Macbeth insane and she speaks that line while sleepwalking, trying in vain to remove an imaginary spot of the kings blood that she believes stains her own hands.
The most plausible explanation for the hostility towards Catholics is a deep and denied guilt over leaving the Church and a forced denial over any culpability for the apostasy. For all of the aggressive berating, chest beating and finger pointing what we are really witnessing is our Lady Macbeths driven to irrational discourse as they walk the midnight halls of the Religion Forum wringing their stained hands.
Such deeply troubled people, devoid of any visible Fruits of the Holy Spirit need our pity, our compassion, our forgiveness and our prayers.
Peace be with you.
Please note: the book of 2 Peter has no words of conciliation for apostates, as I believe many of them are.
