Do you have some specific examples or are you just using this for another ignorant Catholic bashing opportunity?

Oh, there are TONS of examples throughout Church History of the Catholics exploiting suffering — but I’m betting even if I offered a catalog of them, you’d deny and justify almost every one. So, basically, yes, I was just bashing Catholics — not out of ignorance, but with knowledge. :-)
NOT that I think that characterizes the WHOLE of Roman Catholic history — far from it. I have a great deal of respect for Catholics throughout history. Sometimes, the hypocrisy outshines the high spots. Lest you think I am JUST picking on Catholics — the same could be said about ANY and ALL “Christian” churches, organizations, movements and traditions.
I think I’ll bash Baptists next...Maybe then Pentecostals? :-D
