You're really having a hard time coming up with Catholic-bashing stuff, aren't ya?

I’m not even Catholic and even I see this as whining BS.

Children have been treated differently throughout the ages. In Elizabethan era, the infants were tied into a wooden bed with a hole in the middle for their waste. Many American Indians tied their babies to a wooden board for care. Head and foot binding... Children treated as chattel or slaves.

For much of human history, that was the norm.

Being disciplined... wow. How terrible.

(My childhood was a hundred times worse than this. When the kid is actually starving to the point of eating out of a dumpster or killing rabbits for food... then we can talk.)

Amazing how posting ANYTHING, regardless of how true it may be, is seen as bashing.

Kinda reminds me of this:

I knew when I saw this article that most likely it wouldn’t be long before someone told the poster they were “Catholic bashing.” But the rules of this site allow criticism of any church, church figure, etc. “Caucus” and “devotioonal” threads are an exception but not all threads are caucus or devotional. Telling someone that they’re “Catholic bashing” doesn’t address the points they raise and essentially is a personal attack, and I for one would favor all such “bashing” accusations made solely because someone posted something critical but in accordance with the site’s rules, be treated as a personal attack by the religion moderators.

His Freeper ‘Born on Date’ is today. I doubt we’ll see much more of him.
