Really? I find it fascinating that anyone who dares disagree with the author’s opinionated premise that “Democracy is not a child of the Reformation” is labeled with promoting hatred, derision, and overt bigotry; hate-mongering, frothing, slobbering, knee-jerk hatred, not having a single rational thought represented and anti-Catholics. A little bit of over reaction there???
I have nothing against someone disagreeing with the assertion that “Democracy is not a child of the Reformation.” I noted only that the counter-arguments failed to address the argument at all, and instead carried on with hatred, derision, and overt bigotry. If you care to make a better argument, feel free to. I note you’ve tried to at least argue by counter-example, but that your source for what Catholics have said on the matter includes a passage taken from a man arguing that Catholics should have no civil liberties, and shouldn’t be allowed to vote.
