Actually, it's your prejudice that is peeking through. You're the one that continues to attempt to deflect attention to the catholic church by shifting attention to the protestant church...you've done it in both of your posts to me so far. You seem incapable of addressing the topic without bringing up some other unrelated topic...that is exactly how liberals argue...they attempt to justify or defelect attention by changing the subject.

Look - I'm merely pointing out that is unfair to blame the Catholic Church for what some Fillipinos do - just as it would be unfair to blame the Protestant church for the doings in Northern Ireland. How is that "changing the subject?"

If you have trouble grasping that concept without accusing me of "liberal tactics" then there isn't much more I can say.

I was willing to take your word for it that self flagellation is contrary to the catholic church directives...I simply stated that the photos I'd seen identified the individuals as catholics. That is apparently a fact that you're incapable of grasping. And you yet again, for the third time, bring up some unrelated thing about Northern Ireland...that is changing the subject because the topic is self flagellation...not firebombing or whatever else you're trying to deflect to.

The problem is, attempting to shift attention to some unrelated point IS standard liberal tactics. If one begins to discuss something such as global warming with a liberal they'll change the topic to poverty in some other nation or some other disjointed thing. I'm sorry if it's offensive, but it is what you've done in 3 out of 3 posts.
