Catholic League president Bill Donohue comments on remarks made by Seth Meyers on his NBC show of May 24:

“According to reports, a priest recently caught a couple in New Jersey having sex in a Catholic church garden, which is weird because most Catholics only come on Easter and Christmas.”

That is what Meyers said in his latest monologue.

Meyers says he does not consider himself Jewish, even though his paternal grandfather was Jewish, and he likes to perform at Jewish centers.

It’s too bad he isn’t a practicing Jew. If he were, he would likely not trash Catholicism, having too much respect for his own religion and the religion of other Americans.

Whatever is driving his concentration on bashing Catholics—this is hardly the first time he has singled them out for insult—he needs to knock it off.
