This anti-Catholic crap is getting to be annoying

224. Karma? We justify present day bigotry *against individuals*

On the Inquisition? Really?

I thought I have read all.

First off, I prefer the Golden Mean " do onto others as you'd like done to yourself," to Karma.

Secondly, be as critical as you want of the hierarchy, attacking individual members for being Catholic, nothing more, many who are just as critical of the hierarchy..is bigotry, plain and simple.

Moreover, let's assume for a second every liberal catholic, not just in the US, world wide, left the Church...and I mean every one, laity, hierarchy, every last one...(we would call that a schism, another story) tell me, what pressure would there be for that hyper conservative hierarchy that remains to change? Who among their now hyper conservative laity would be interested in changing?

The Church, as large as it is does change, but change takes decades, at times centuries. It is the nature of the organization and balancing things that now I understand, condescending I know, most Americans don't really get. It is universal, and your first world priorities and values are all but priorities in small towns in the African bush, or the Andes.

Yup, at this point I need to do this.

in spades.
