24. You're the dining room table. The OP you directly responded to said:

Dec 2013

"There are already quite a few Catholics that are close to Obama in the White House administration: VP Joe Biden, WH Chief of Staff McDonough, HHS Sec Sebelius, Sec of Labor Perez, Sec of Agriculture Vilsak - Sec of State John Kerry, National Security Advisor Tom Donilon -- and probably many others (not all cabinet folks have their religion listed on Wikipedia)."

And then you responded:

"Great! Our government is run by people who believe in the sky fairy.

"No wonder we are destroying the planet."

Any thinking person would conclude you were trying to disparage Catholics, especially those in the Obama administration, as people who were "destroying the planet."
