long post I was planning this post, but now with the Pope's visist me the opportunity has arisen.
The truth is that the visit, as far as I remember, more rejection is caused by the secularists, arguing that spends a lot of money in a time of crisis, or that the Church wants to eliminate AIDS in Africa, recalling his opposition to abortion, gay marriage and pedophilia ...
What I wonder is if for example Spain came to an atheist leader, not someone important for atheists, Noam Chomsky type anti-globalization movements. If a person came very influential in the atheist's visit to Spain, and saliesen Catholic bishops to head to demonstrate against the visit of such person, and say, "out", "you're welcome", "do not support,"
arise
and cartoons in their media, ridiculing their ideas, or music groups singing against the beliefs of atheists, or had a picture of children chasing an atheist, or campaigns to stop hiciesen to be atheist, you probably would be that atheists were angry and spoke of the intolerance of Catholics, their fanaticism, that do not allow freedom of expression ... And I seem normal that they should tell and who are outraged.
But with this visit of the Pope, his cartoons have appeared in the media opposed to this visit, he ridiculed their beliefs, there are bands that sing not only against the errors of the Church (Inquisition, support Franco or pederasty ), but even sang ridiculing the beliefs of Catholics, there are signs of "out", "you're welcome" or "do not support," campaigns for apostatÃa or an image of a priest on the hunt for children ... and I think the same intolerance that the Catholics might have for atheists. Have the same intolerance of atheists to Catholics.
Of course, that's fine to criticize the pope's visit, missing more, are within their rights to freedom of expression. But cartoons or songs ridiculing people who believe in God seem excessive.
suppose that atheists or secular say that would seem OK for Catholics criticize the ideas of atheists or secular because they would be within their rights to freedom of expression, but does not seem so normal to have cartoons or songs ridiculing the beliefs of atheists.
In short, more tolerance, both in one hand as the other. That there is any Catholic protest atheists or secular talk of bigotry, remember this protest atheist or secular. And when there is a protest atheist or secular, and Catholics talk about intolerance, remember their Catholic protests.
