Some religious types choose to see a bigotted boogeyman behind every statement that their group has done something wrong ...

And some religious types note that some folks can't talk about the weather without taking a shot at another's faith.

Ridiculous doesn't even begin to describe it.

You know, if you want to play games. Go play your games. I've got no use for anyone that wants to wine because facts
impede there ability to be comfortable with their popular lie. That's part of what the article here is about. I'm sure a lot of black people out there feel the same way, you're a racist bigot because you're casting aspersions on their currently held beliefs - sacred to them because it builds their self esteem. If you don't want to debate the issue or talk about it openly, fine. Don't sit here and pretend it's all about the Catholic religion - an irrelevancy to the discussion. It's the act that is relevant. And it's no different than the actions of the 'PLO' and it's historical lies about Israel and a place called Pallestine that has never existed.

When you feel like discussing something rather than trying to bait a fight. You're free to talk. As yet, all ya'll have done is cast aspersions about the fact that a Catholic fraud was mentioned as if pointing out catholic error is illegal or something. German error is fine. Islamic error is fine, etc. But Catholic error is hateful speach and bigoted. The others have the same propaganda. If you have a material problem with the facts as stated, you can challenge them. But I doubt you even know the name of the man that exposed the fraud, his religious standing or that he nearly faced an inquisitional tribunal for doing so - and not because he was wrong. His case was proven then. It didn't have to wait till modern times. Which shows how poor the forgeries ultimately were.

Perhaps you can actually converse rather than try to discredit by slander. You know - maybe actually present a case or engage in the discussion. Maybe throw in another (here's a really neat idea) lie about history that maybe some of us here aren't aware of? What an idea in a thread about the very topic. How novel.
