Tonight, I felt the power of hatred firsthand. Never before in my life have I been discriminated against because of my beliefs. I have been treated differently or made fun of possibly, but never experienced hatred simply because I am Catholic. I know there are many people that have strong feelings about Catholics.

I have spoken of this before as I have been every month since it started. These … [Read more...]
