Hi Viviana I would take your comments seriously if you offered comments all along on some of the issues I have discussed on this forum. I am not worried who is insulted or offended these days, as people hide some of their own prejudices and feelings behind such public exclamations.
In fact, should I feel insulted that: 1. The Catholic Taliban is firmly entrenched in the Vatican and women are summarily dismissed as not equal to men and therefore cannot be priests. 2. Should I further be insulted that most Catholics on this forum did not speak out against the priest sex abuse scandal in the USA. I cannot recall if you spoke out or not. 3. Should I then be further be insulted that most Catholics on this forum did not back the idea of the having the Archdiocese of Goa make a public comment on the priest sex abuse scandal in the Goa. 4. Perhaps I should be most insulted that Catholics on this forum do not speak out against the Catholic jihadists (Opus Dei). 5. Or should I save my feelings of insult that most of the top honors of Popes and saints go to Europeans, and Goans silently accept this? We are very selective and choosy, are we not?
