So what?

Do you really think it's relevant today whether you are an American Protestant or an American Catholic?

Do you really thinks it's much relevant today whether you are an American Protestant or an American Catholic?Yes I do

Perhaps one day several decades from now, your grandson, after hearing a person criticize the fact that muslims are taking over political positions in European countries, will say: "Do you really think it's much relevant today whether you are a European Christian or a European Muslim?" ... It is the same situation in some ways (in my opinion) :eek:

Islam is completely foreign to Western culture. Catholicism isn't.

OK, but in the case of Protestants and Catholics I can't agree.

In the end, they are both Christians.

Islam is completely foreign to Western culture. Catholicism isn't.Catholicism is completely foreign to America.

Catholicism isn't.It is not a surprise that jcs would say this, considering his strong pro-Catholic opinions.

I find it ironic that Lenny worries about catholics when he should be worried about jews, especially ashkenazi jews.

Catholicism is completely foreign to America.

Wasn't America built on European immigrants ? Just because the Brits and Germans - who are indeed majoritary protestant - still make up the majority of people with European ancestry there doesn't means Catholicism is completly foreign to the US. Catholicism is still widespread throughout the western world, and it has millions of White adherents.

The real shit that happened was when Gingrich was replaced by Henry Hyde( who sucked). Delay sucked and most likely this guy will too. They're all crooks.
