Closing note to a painful episode

[fpb]

Anyone who expect themselves and their friends to indulge in anti-Catholic bigotry at any time in the future, spare yourselves the trouble and defriend me RIGHT NOW. Because no amount of emotional blackmail, moral equivalence or pressure of any other kind will keep me from calling anti-Catholic bigotry by its name. All anyone will manage is get me angry at them personally. (Instead of only at bigotry as such.)

Sincerely,
Fabio Paolo Edoardo Vigilio Barbieri

I appreciate that. I’ve been through similar things myself. I just wanted to let you know that in general, and on this point in particular, I’m in your corner — despite what I said about one particular issue in my latest post.

Thank you.
