Religious prejudice will presumably continue to be a popular pastime for the next millennium as it has been for the last few.
Persecution complex much? I mean it’s not like atheism, homosexuality, or even left handedness were literally beaten out of people for centuries by religious leaders. No no no, you’re still so persecuted like you have been for centuries the way you can’t celebrate your faith (or lack thereof in other faiths), or marry the person you love regardless of gender, or use the hand that’s more natural for you.
Pointing out reasons to be against your religion (even if they were blown out of proportion, which they aren’t) is nothing in comparison to the centuries of shame, abuse, and death caused by your religion. Bemoaning those complaints as millennia of “religious prejudice” only further reinforces the existing image many Catholics create of being tone deaf crybabies.
Good luck finding someone to explain why an entire thread of hundreds of comments exclusively about hating on Catholics suggests the presence of objectionable religious prejudice.
You say that like it was unprompted. Like OP didn’t very literally ask for these types of comments. If we were talking about some chess discussion that turned into anti-catholicism, you might have a point however you’re literally pointing at a thread asking “why do people dislike my religion?” as evidence for “this is why I’m prejudiced against.”
Someone asked for reasons, people supplied reasons, and now you’re bemoaning that reasons were supplied. I don’t know what exactly you were expecting to see when you opened this thread especially considering it’s about a historically very controversial group that’s existed for millennia, but I certainly wasn’t expecting an outpouring of unanimous support.
