Shame on hipocrites -- Things that I cannot leave unsaid today

Hipocrite:

1 : a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion

2 : a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings

My blog usually is not politically faceted and I mainly state my liberal views in privacy, but today I feel compelled to write this post about issues that deeply anger me.

The so-called defenders of life turn to threaten the lives of democratic politicians, their children and grand children. Shame on you...and to mask your hate with religious reasoning or conservative views is just a plain blasphemy.

And as a born and raised Catholic I feel ashamed about actions of the official church: covering up the crimes of a child molester. Hasn't there been enough wrong-doing in the name of the church?

No wonder many Non-Christians state : I like your Jesus, but I don't like your Christians.
