"misinterpreted"?

Not likely, Rig. You were quite clear. But as I've suggested, all you have to do is start thinking before hitting "send".   It would be refreshing.   And you are rather lucky the moderator of this site is a VERY tolerant Catholic.   If I had been in charge you would have been bounced off the site immediately--and I'm not even religious.

First of all, ..."you've tried to hang it on more that (sic) one poster."   Wrong again. You maintain your perfect record. I noted who said it at the time, and have never fingered anybody else.


Then it also appears you need some help with English, the language you supposedly speak. Perhaps not as well as some Mexican immigrants.

Let's go to the tape, as they say.

..." there is no way somebody could be as diabolical as Hitler without being addicted to some ancient superstition or another--cocaine wouldn't do it--and if he started out Catholic....."

1)   Hitler was evil. I imagine we can agree on that.

2) So the question becomes:   what caused his evilness?   Your answer:   "addiction to some ancient superstition or another..."

Then you observe that this superstition must be more powerful than cocaine.

3) You hit on the answer: "if he started out Catholic..."

4)   So a person who can read and reason--perhaps that excludes you-- sees clearly what you are saying:   the ancient superstition that caused Hitler to be so evil--including of course mass murder---was Catholicism.

I assume this is clear even to a gentleman from the shallow end of the gene pool--like your good self?

Though I can certainly see why you at first wanted to deny having said it, and now would like to sweep it under the rug.

Just start putting brain in gear before hitting "send" and you'd be amazed at the improvement.    A gentle suggestion.
