France is allowing Jews to be harassed and attacked with impunity and Catholics are sitting back and doing nothing to prevent it.

Where in the heck have we heard this story before?

Does 1940-1945 come to mind?

Which Catholics are those?

The approximately 4% of Frenchmen who still attend Mass each week do not send their children to the Catholic schools.

The vast majority of children at that school are the children of well-to-do atheists who send their kids to private school so they can get better jobs.

"Does 1940-1945 come to mind?"

Only this time we have George Bush at the helm. We will never again permit what happened to the Jewish people.

Don't hold your breath about "French Catholics". They are Catholics in name only. Most of them only go to church three times in their lives: to be baptized, to get married and to be buried; or as a popularphrase puts it, "to be hatched, matched and dispatched." Most of Europe is already in a post-Christian era.
