I wouldn't brag about this if I were you. Non Catholics ( most people

exactly see this as a good thing.

They don't do tremendous harm to women at all. You do tremendous harm
to
women by spreading primitive unscientific superstitious bullshit.

There were no such persons as Adam and Eve for sure, and the existence
of
Noah is highly doubtfull. How do you feel about Mickey Mouse and
Donald
Duck? How about the tooth fairy?

The Jesus of your religion is mythological, but there was a real
Jesus.
So what do you do? You try to prove the myhological instead of the
real.
How absurd is that?

Superstition is a wonderful thing. It makes it possible to argue about
how
many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

People don't need to be saved for being born. They need to be saved
from the
insanity of people like you. Your glorious history is an example of
that.

They weren't his words. They are words made up by some guys who wanted
to
invent a religion, and attributed them to him.

for the mythological Jesus.
