text: #1. YOU don't know who I voted for. It is dangerous to make assumptions.
  #2. I am not the "defender of all things clerical, conservative, et al." - again making assumptions. My so-called defense consists of requiring proof in the face of the onslaught of false/unproven accusations. That there seems to be a plethora of those remarks sadly speaks to the sheer volume of comments filled with falsity, hatred, and purposeful misdirection that need to be addressed.
  #3. Be very careful of statements like "Catholics like you" - you only show your own hatred, bias, misunderstanding.
  I hope your conversion to Judaism helps you with what you need to unlearn.
