I wonder how the apologists are going to spin this one?

Gods plan blah blah blah,they werent true believers blah blah blah...

something like that
ALL PRAISE THE ONE TRUE GOD ZALGO

They just tossed their bodies into an unused septic tank? This really is quite depressing. :/

I bet the AFA doesn't call for a boycott of Catholic themed stamps.

Whosoever would defend such a thing, really. I don't really care about denominations, just whether or not your first instinct would be to attempt to excuse or downplay what happened here.

I think you would find that your only beef here is with the Catholic church, since the protestant churches formed in "protest" of the Catholics.

Even they had the good sense to see that Catholicism was evil.
