Ask a Catholic

[Wyrd of Gawd]

1.  Hostile isn't necessarily the right word.  People here are just sick of the same old stuff, over and over ad nauseam.  Especially when those claims have no actual proof or evidence of any kind.

Then why do they bother to respond to the posts at all? There are plenty of other sub-forums for them to haunt. When I am sick of cheeseburgers, I don't go to McDonald's.

No, they aren't "sick of the same old stuff"...they are anti-Christian, and they want to vent because they are angry at God, the Catholic Church and Christianity, in general. This is evident because in the "Why Be Good?" thread, everyone is falling all over themselves trying to explain how good they are to others and so forth...except to the only Christian currently active in the thread.

The hypocrisy is obvious.

Didn't Jesus say that his followers would be persecuted and suffer?  That's the deal you have to abide by if you want to be one of his groupies.  So stop expecting sweet rose petals and song birds.  

Matthew 5:11 = https://www.biblegateway.com/verse/en/Matthew%205:11

Remember, people who are killed for their faith get a white robe and a place under the altar.  Revelation 6:9-11  Isn't that wonderful?
