I went to Catholic school until high school.
I know Christians all too well.
Had a Catholic priest from Czech come from around the world to take up his pulpit in front of me and my classmates 3 times a week claiming whoever wasnt catholic would burn in hell. he drove a Saab.
We were told to stand upon any priest entering our class room at any time, I refused then as I refuse this now. I was reprimanded my entire childhood for challenging the very beliefs I was being told if I didnt believe I would burn. Catholicism.
I have seen some of the most miserable and most hateful persons use their religion to disciplince children into their own faith.
These are the same christians.
