If you thought anti Catholicism had died out with the ecumencial movement, don\u2019t worry. It hasn\u2019t. It\u2019s just shifted. You may not find such blatant anti-Catholicism from fellow Christians because among most Protestants there is now a veneer of good manners towards Catholics. I realize there is still a good bit of virulent \u2018Pope is the Anti-Christ\u2019 type stuff, but much of it has softened.<\/p>\n

Instead a new wave of anti-Catholicism is alive and well. If you have the stomach for it, go here <\/a>to watch Penn and Teller\u2019s blasphemous, vulgar, loud and ignorant attack on the Vatican. Included in the list of the new anti-Catholicism would be Dan Brown and his ridiculous novels, the drunken atheist journalist Christopher Hitchens, sophomore university student, Richard Dawkins etc. etc.<\/p>\n

What tickles me about these people is that they are churning out pretty much the same old stuff that has been around since the Reformation:<\/p>\n
