Bash the Catholics here.
by JG inreading one of the other threads got me thinking.
what is the root of anti-catholic sentiment.
i was raised a catholic, still catholic, and have never heard a good reason why some people dislike catholicism.

JG,
A little bit of info. may be found here, about halfway down...
http://web.nwe.ufl.edu/~mnorcia/sa02/smair/paper.html
The next site on my schedule is the Capuchin Crypt. "The bones of 4,000 hooded Capuchin friars decorate the four chapels of the Capuchin Crypt, one of the most bizarre and elaborately macabre settings in Rome. A French Capuchin monk inaugurated the crypt in 1528 but never saw his brilliant concept brought to its spooky completion, as it was incomplete until 1870. Angels deck the halls with hip bone wings. The bodies of more recently deceased friars stand, robed and hooded, beneath bone arches. Even the chandeliers are made of bones. The last chapel displays two severed arms, and its walls are lined with skin. A child's skeleton is plastered to the ceiling, holding a scale and a reaper and accompanied by the uplifting inscription: 'What you are now we used to be, what we are now, you will be.'(Capuchin)"
This is all made from skulls:
And some skeletons:

JG, I will try to find a website about the church I described. The "purpose" of the display was to show that "physical" death is nothing to be feared because of the resurrection hope.
And the final room has a little sign that reads:
"We were once what you are now...Soon you will be what we are now..."It was really really interesting!

Maybe one reason is the Spanish Inquisition....... No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!!
After visiting Rome, I couldn't help but be impressed with the Catholic Church, after all those years of irrationally hating them while a JW. The churches there are just great!!! I especially liked the one with the attached indoor "cemetary" where they have built furniture out of the bones of the dead monks of the order (Cappucines I think?). Now if thats not a cool religion I dunno what is. They made angel wings out of the shoulder blades!!! And table legs from femur bones! Kewl! My kids thought it was GREAT!!
My mother (fanatical Jedi JW class) still says " the rotten old Pope"...whenever the Pope is mentioned. (not me, the other one).

I listen to Bob Dylan records, he ain't never lied to me yet!
"When somethings not right, its wrong." sings Bob.
I wish the GB and JW elders and rank-and-file could understand this, but even such a simple concept eludes their thinking ability.

Ashi! Cool!
Did Bob do the "I am the Man, Thomas" opener there?
Oh, I am the Man, Thomas, I am the Man.
Look at these nail scars here in my hands.
They pierced me in the side, Thomas, I am the Man
They made me bear the cross, Thomas, I am the Man.Pope
