According to Facebook, St. Augustine is too judgmental.
Let us never assume that if we live good lives we will be without sin; our lives should be praised only when we continue to beg for pardon. But men are hopeless creatures, and the less they concentrate on their own sins, the more interested they become in the sins of others. They seek to criticize, not to correct. Unable to excuse themselves, they are ready to accuse others.
Sin is the deliberate rebellion against the Father’s will and evil is the result. Seek to do the Father’s will and goodness and righteousness will be the result. “Seek and ye shall find.” There is nothing hidden which will not be revealed. St, Augustine sought truth and wisdom was the result.

This is why we should do away with hate speech altogether. Better to call it ‘dislike’ speech and give it a retort.
The quote is a perfect indictment of the cowards who have done in Tommy Robinson. // And who will weep when he leaves prison, finally silent, encased in wood?
This is how the Vatican had the same control over us.
