So I guess religeous groups like the Jews and Muslims never have been bashed before? Never made the paper? There is a bigger world out there...Moderator cut: we can do without the personal attacks

I never said they have not been bashed before. Your looking to put words in my mouth and start trouble. This is not a rant site. Were here to exchange information.

I'm not trying to really start trouble. I apologize for being such a smarta**. However, I'm Catholic and I really don't see this as a big deal. And if this is not a rant site, then why are you focusing so heavily on my religeon? You have brought up on more than two occasions that other people are "bashing" people of the Catholic faith and the Catholic faith as well.

Judge Smails, you owned up for your remark and I repectfully accept your apolodgy. I'm giving you some reps for it also.

The reason I brought up Catholic bashing in the first place was just to compare it to Jersey Bashing. You could read what I wrote in the 5th post in this thread. The reason I brought it up after that was because I was asked "What exactly is Catholic bashing?' by ciao9999 in the 13th post on this thread.

Anyway, hope that explains it. Water under the bridge.

You got that right!

That's exactly what I did. I lived in NJ all of my adult life, and it has some good points, to be sure. I had to live there because of my job, and, while terribly expensive, it wasn't all bad.

As soon as I retired, I moved one state west, to Pennsylvania. PA isn't even one of the lowest-cost-of-living states, but living here is so much cheaper than living in NJ, I now feel rich!
