Rebuttles against anti-Catholics

by Clonjey   Oct 1, 2005


I'm the black catholic.
Are you a crack addict?
You must have missed it,
we're not polytheistic.
How can you tell me what I believe.
Forget what you think and perceive.
Since your youth you've been mis-informed about the truth.
You cause division when you don't envision my religion as Christian.

We pray to Jesus which is our brother.
We pray to Mary for she is our mother.
Not divine like the blessed trinity.
But she was in the Lord's vicinity when he died in Gethsemane.
It's hard to pray to the Holy Spirit,
but Mary is human, at least near it.
So we pray to Mary so he can hear it.
And we thank her for the child that she raised,
Indirectly it's because of her we were saved.
So don't complain when Mary is praised.

I was taught that we are to accept all other religions.
I can't when others look down at mine like pigeons.
Why can't you see this?
We both believe in Jesus.
They're always trying to convert me.
like Catholicism can hurt me.
But their subliminal influence on me is minimal.
I know Roman Catholicism is the original.
Now how can mine be worst if mine came first,
We read the same bible verse but we're cursed?

Please don't tell me what God can do to me.
There is a leader praised in every community.
The Popes are like the Presidents.
Instill hope within our Residence.
Yes they are adored,
but not treated like the Lord.
Just as the president of our society.
Don't understand? check your sobriety.
In addition, kissing the ring is just a tradition.
Today it seems like submission.
That is because we live in the 21st century.
So I won't let these negative statements enter me.

It's time to build a hindrance for ignorance
Judging without knowing what the scenario's like,
That's prejudice stupid, not just stereotype.
