[Polycarp]

Its no more or less an isolated incident that "hate crimes" against homos, which is the point. "Hate crimes" against homos are trumpeted in headlines nationwide repeatedly. Similar crimes by homos aginst the innocent are met with media censorship.

In a world where the martyrdom of a faithful Catholic is censored from national headlines by media silence, I do think more such events will occur.

On top of the homicide of the souls of many thousands of innocent teenage boys via homopederasty, which is an integral part of the homosexual subculture.

You do not think this martyrdom of a faithful Catholic woman should have received more widespread coverage?

Are you now joining the sycophantic chorus blaming the woman not the homosexual for violating the "homos' rights", expressed by your comments, Why not just leave gays alone? Gays don't "have to change."

Are you too saying its wrong for Catholics to minister to homos? Or that if they try, they too should "logically" anticipate being slashed to death and stuffed into a crawlspace?

Obviously, I'm making an unfair caricature of your comments.

However, your own flippant attitute in the face of this faithful Catholic's martyrdom while preaching the Gospel is troubling at best. Bernadette's dismay is warranted. Your making light of it is not.

I ask an innocent question, and, in your inimitable style, you go off, half-cocked. My friend, you really do need to learn to dialogue with people. Your hostile response to a simple question reveals more about you than it does about me.

You do not think this martyrdom of a faithful Catholic woman should have received more widespread coverage?

It should have received much more coverage.

Are you now joining the sycophantic chorus blaming the woman not the homosexual for violating the "homos' rights", expressed by your comments, Why not just leave gays alone? Gays don't "have to change."

See what I mean about your hyperbolic style? You put words in people's mouths. I don't blame the woman for anything. OTOH, if a gay is not bothering you, why not just leave him alone?

Are you too saying its wrong for Catholics to minister to homos?

Other Catholics can do whatever they are motivated to do. I don't get in other people's faces unless they are threatening me or my family directly.

Or that if they try, they too should "logically" anticipate being slashed to death and stuffed into a crawlspace?

Pure hysteria.

Obviously, I'm making an unfair caricature of your comments.

Yes. This is something you often do, and not just to me.

However, your own flippant attitute in the face of this faithful Catholic's martyrdom while preaching the Gospel is troubling at best. Bernadette's dismay is warranted. Your making light of it is not.

Where was I "flippant"? Just because I don't "evangelize" by correcting other people, by seeking out "sinners" and telling them they are sinners, you assume I don't care about any of this.

You are an activist. I am not. You organize whatever crusade you feel you need to to respond to this outrage. I'll support you.

Another poster on this website said last night that the only way we're going to rid the world of Islam is to "shove the crucifix in the faces of the Islamics."

You and he can storm the barricades if you wish.

In return for gays staying out of my face, I don't get in theirs.
