“Exactly what the posters you admonished were implying.”
If so, they ignored the problem and the victims in favor of “gotcha” parochialism. Sick.
They, more than most, having been through the wringer in a very public manner, should understand the problem and the effect on victims, and the pummeling that their faith took, all because of gays. That their first reaction was as it was is sick in my view, and perpetuates the problem.
You obviously weren’t on the threads at the time. A whole lot of people ignored that it goes on in other organizations preferring to believe it was only the Catholic Church which had the problem.
Your problem is that you missed most of the conversation. Anyone who was there knew what the statement meant. It didn’t ignore anything.
