  1. You're always committing terrible crimes and subverting governments so you can get away with everything.
  2. You've lived this way for your entire history — even before you were known as Christians.
  3. I have been your victim for my whole life.

I descend from Patricia Italian nobility and I hate you people.

  • Why don't you leave everyone alone and keep to yourselves?

People wouldn't mind having you around then.

  • Finally, why do you waste your time lying about what you are?

The world knows your violent, nihilistic, subversive, genocidal communists . . . you know, the leaches who aren't smart enough or civilized enough to earn an honest living.

Hi, Lisa —

You said:

What is wrong with us and all of mankind is we are victims to temptation and sin. As a matter of fact, some of the most scandalous, sinful people in the world are Catholics.

There is one critical issue missing from your set of questions.

As Catholics, we separate the sin and scandalous behavior from the official teachings and faith of the Catholic Church.

We don't leave Peter and the Church because of Judas behavior.

What I find curiously ironic is that the litany in your last sentence is exactly what the Church defends the modern world against.

Paul
