Nah, "SoothingDave" was the one who suggested that it's okay for one Church to assert superiority over another because of their expanded schedule. A2J just called him on it. Appropriately.

I criticsed a perfectly criticisable decision by these megachurches. You think that justifies making molestation jokes and smearing priests?

The Catholic Church has a huge problem with it's priests. It's not like the situation is resolved. This is really damaging as the "Church" is considered sacred.

Protestant churches have issues as well, but protestants have never asserted that their "Church" has supernatural powers.

These problems with the Catholic Church would lead many to believe that the "Church" and the papal father might be akin the "emperor with no clothes".

And what makes it a "perfectly criticisable decision?" You?

I know that Catholics claim to have inside contacts to God (i.e., saints), but when you urinate into the wind, don't complain when you get sprinkled on (no pun intended).

Nope, nothing justifies smearing priests, Dave. I got a fine education from selfless Basilican and Jesuit priests. Anyone who smears priests generally is as wrong as anyone who smears evangelicals generally.

I missed the smear post, btw. And if I catch a fellow protestant doing that, I WILL call him on it.
