Nodding my head

in agreement with Nod:

"Although in a free society everyone is entitled to their own opinion, outsiders shouldn't make the mistake of thinking they are experts on the internals of things Catholic. A number of our own members are poorly enough catechized as it is; we really don't need self-appointed experts muddying the waters with their ignorant bombast. Even the few outsiders who have taken the time to educate themselves need to take a back seat when it comes to being Catholic."

Speaking of ignorant bombast, it turns out the Pope is right about condoms, a fact about which the media continues to bloviate erroneously.
