Opinion of the Knights of Columbus

[patrick1]

Definitely HP.

And not for being Catholic by the way, but rather for being named after one of the worst genocidal mass murderers in history.

I imagine they were named after the original Columbus who is a saint in the Catholic church?

Nah, while there were at least two Irish Saint Columba's or Columcille and a Saint Columbanus- the K of C was named from Christopher Columbus. There is a separate fraternal order in Ireland called the Knights of Columbanus.

To actually answer the question, they sponsored opposing little league teams, gave me some scholarship money and had some cheap beers at their meeting hall- they are okay in my book.
