Not really sure what you’re doing on FreeRepublic. Did Dummie Underground kick you out?

“Preachers continue to steal from rubes and get away with it”

By your logic, the Red Cross also steals from rubes and gets away with it. Trust an atheist to forget all the charity work done by churches.

“Education and scientific gains are stifled by religious belief”

Spoken like a true socialist. Science would be much better without any beliefs coming into play. Dr. Josef Mengele was one of the leading thinkers in this department.

“Thousands of children are raped by the catholic church and all is well.”

Except most of those victims were not actually “children”, they were post-pubescent. People often are stupid enough to refer to this scandal as the “Catholic pedophile scandal”, when it was really just the “Catholic homosexual statutory rape scandal”. A lot of Phy-ed teachers and coaches have also been rapists. Maybe they should be outlawed too.

“It’s high time we get past the nonsense as humans.”

I get the impression you’ve been watching a few too many Lenin speeches.

No.

Quite a leap! If you are implying that every dollar that Creflo Dollar and Joel Osteen get goes to charity, then thanks for proving my point. Also, to be clear, many 10's of thousands of churches do incredible charity work and without volunteerism and charity, our country would crumble worse than it is.

You sure do like giant ridiculous leaps. Your second sentence is on point though.

Just so we're clear, you're apologizing for decades-long systematic child sexual abuse by men in position of authority. Have a lovely day.
