The Catholic Church burned Jews and heretics throughout Europe, and I didn't care,
The Catholic Church set itself at war against Muslims over a city they hadn't controlled in centuries, and I didn't care,
The Catholic Church annhilated indigenous peoples in an effort to covert them, and I didn't care,
The Catholic Church held European monarchs in thrall and set them to war against one another, and I didn't care,
The Catholic Church turned a blind eye to Hitler, and I didn't care,
But woe to those who make disparaging remarks about the Catholic Church, for the poor, helpless Church cannot defend itself against such atorcities.
