For a second my heart was sinking. Was Caitlin Moran, that courageous campaigner against Twitter abuse, herself guilty of a Twitter hate crime?
But all’s well – her tweet wasn’t a vicious attack on Muslims, only against Catholics and, as we know, in the rarified atmosphere of the metropolitan media chattering class, Catholics and other Christians don’t count….
The Catholic Church – they hate women and fuck kids. On a day-to-day level, that's a tough sell.

Mind you there’s always one unenlightened cynic ready to drip poison…
That is a revolting slur on hundreds of millions of members of the Church, including the overwhelming majority of Catholic clergy.
There’s also another religious grouping she could’ve applied those tasteful “comments” to with equal lack of foundation. But then she wouldn’t have had the balls.
Oh Morningcloak….when I read your comment at this article I just knew you had a heart of stone….or maybe not…
