[Robert-Blanton]

Let me first say that I am not a Catholic Christian, but I feel that catholics are scrutinized for a number of reasons: 1)There used to be a substantial prejudice in the US against catholics in general. For example, the KKK, in addition to hating jews and blacks, also is strongly anti-catholic. 2) Many protestant and fundamentalist christians have a different approach to the interpretation of the bible than do many Catholics, so they tend to feel that this difference somehow makes Catholics non-christian (they apparantly overlook the fact that the ‘protestant’ approach to the bible and to ‘justification by faith alone’ is much different than the original form of christianity practiced 2000 years ago). 3)Finally, many people are uneducated about Catholic liturgical traditions and therefore think that they are ‘weird’ or even anti-Christian in some way.
