But I was correct in pointing out in one of the subsequent posts that the murderous atrocities committed by the RCC through history drastically outnumber similar crimes committed by unregenerate Protestants.

We disagree on this point. Neither of us is "lying" about it, just one of us is relying on biased sources.

But to bring up only the tragedies of one side is to paint yourself as pure. So spare me how I "misrepresented" what you said. You know damn well that repeating these accusations of Catholic attrocites is done for one reason only -- to make Protestants in the Amen Corner say "oooh those evil Catholics. I'm so glad I'm a pure Protestant."

So just spare all of us. Write your little Scriptural eisegeses, but leave the polemics out of it, OK?

By the same token, I would never say that there have never been closet (or even overt) homosexuals in the supposedly Protestant ministry. But they are relatively rare in the Protestant movement. On the other hand, they are everywhere in the RC priesthood.

LOL. Right. You argue from what you wish would be, rather than from any facts you may have. Protestantism, especially in the 20th Century, is nothing other than the surrender of Christianity to the basest sexual desires.

Who stands for the unborn? Who stands against adultery? Who stands against contraception?

No, you were LYING.

Now, deal with the article or lose the overall argument by DEFAULT.

Having "moral stands" does not save anyone. Only Jesus saves Dave.
