Wow, I am quite sad that a certain follower and who I have followed lately is attacking the Catholic religion. I’ve been blogging for more than ten years now and it is only now that there is this personal attack through his comments on a comment I made earlier. He claims to be a Christian but is full of hate about the Catholic church. He even said that we worship Mary and the saints which is nowhere said in the Bible. I told him, we venerate Mary, not worship her.
I don’t want to argue when it comes to religion. We stay where we are comfortable and everyone should respect that. Personal attack is a no, no for me. Imagine, he is telling everyone to stay away from the Catholic church, what a shame.
I unfollowed him and removed him from my list of followers.I blocked him for good. I don’t feel at ease having someone so opinionated like him.

Unfortunately these days, because people can hide behind their PC’s they are likely to give their opinions more freely than if it was face to face. Sad that you had to deal with that. 😦

That’s so true. He claims to be an author and a Christian at that. He is so biased against other religions especially the Catholic church.

It’s really sad Anne. I just commented a one liner when I said I am a Catholic and his response was a whole paragraph talking of the ills of the Catholic church. Thanks Anne!

I also hate those people who think the only right is what they believe is…
Everyone one is right within their own opinions and interpretation of things…
So I do believe that we all should respect each other and know that we all stand up in different locations and how we view and what we see will always be different…. though we /it may be

It’s so sad that there are people out there like that. We should respect each other’s beliefs. I think he needs to do a little more research and get his facts straight before he starts attacking anybody. I’m sorry you had to deal with that.

You know I am not religious, but I would never attack anyone for their beliefs. I have seen so many people get great comfort from faiths of all kinds, and if it works for them, that’s fine with me.
You don’t need followers like that. Life’s too short.
Best wishes, Pete.
