Well then they're not Catholics anymore. And there's still over a billion Catholics who disagree with your interpretation, so overall the odds are slightly against you.

Uh, no... I'm saying that most people don't care about *your* stereotype of Catholics as pagan idolators.

Osama being a Muslim isn't a stereotype, it's a fact - he's a bad Muslim IMO, but still a Muslim nonetheless.

I'm open to your interpretations when they're based on facts instead of opinions.

And the majority of the world doesn't care about your opinion of them or others, which I believe was the original point.

and BTW, most Jews would take issue with you calling Christianity "our sector of Judaism" - do you care about their opinion on that, or do you also not care about what Jews (who you claim connection to) think of you?
