I wouldn't recommend that you try to put words into Bishop Fulton Sheen's mouth.

“Few Americans hate the Catholic Church, but millions hate what they think is the Catholic Church.”

“There are not one hundred people in the United States who hate The Catholic Church, but there are millions who hate what they wrongly perceive the Catholic Church to be.”

“There are not one hundred Catholics on FR who hate The Protestant Church, but there are a BUNCH who hate what they wrongly perceive the Protestant Church to be.”

"A Plea For Intolerance" (1931) —Bishop Fulton J. Sheen

 

Tolerance is an attitude of reasoned patience toward evil ... a forbearance that restrains us from showing anger or inflicting punishment.

 Tolerance applies only to persons ... never to truth.

 

America, it is said, is suffering from intolerance — it is not.

It is suffering from tolerance.

Tolerance of right and wrong, truth and error, virtue and evil, Christ and chaos.

Our country is not nearly so overrun with the bigoted as it is overrun with the broadminded.
