Yes, so does Islam, so does Protestantism, so even do Hindus, and most definitely non religious athiests, etc, etc, etc...
The POINT is that you gain nothing by singling out these religions. It is the hatred, not the religion that is at fault.

I am fairly liberal, happy to live with all kinds of people, BUT... don't you DARE tell me I cannot believe what I believe or live in the way I want (as long as its not harmful to others).
Nothing makes people adhere to their religion, and to the more conservative among those religions, than attacks. Discussion.. fine. Attacks, particularly attacks based on unreasoned disdain -- not.

I agree, though, there are political rather than religious reasons for that.
saxitoxin wrote:In any case, this is a thread about Catholics and whether or not they're dangerous and should be rounded up for the camps. The Catholics read a holy book that teaches people to engage in murder, bloodlust, pillage. Here are a number of passages:- "Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I have not come to bring peace, but a sword!" (Matthew 10:34)
- "The Lord is a man of war: the Lord is his name.” (Exodus 15)
- "“Every purpose is established by counsel: and with good advice make war.” (Proverbs 20:18)
- "Slaves! Obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling!" (Ephesians 6:5)
etc. etc.

saxitoxin wrote:With children being molested and raped left and right, it turns out Adams and others were right - Catholicism is even more of a threat to America than the British crown. Why doesn't Obama show more respect to the founding fathers warnings about Catholicism? When he invites the Beast of Rome into the White House he's basically pissing all over the legacy of the revolutionary patriots.

Back in the 17th century, Guy Fawkes and a group of other Catholics devised a plot to detonate explosives under the British Parliament, in order to kill the king and decimate the government. Their motivation? To install a Catholic monarch on the British throne following the (plotted) death of the then King James I.
As it happens they were thwarted at the last minute, and Guy Fawkes was captured and executed. Every year on November 5th the British people mark his execution with bonfires and fireworks, lest they forget the insidious threat posed by radical Catholicism.
