"Your #43 and #44 (to me) seem to indicate a lack of reading of the article and the issues in it."

Did you really expect a fair and impartial assessment of the facts when an opportunity to bash the Church and its clergy presented itself. Just ask yourself what else would motivate the non-Catholics to flock to any Catholic topic thread if not to bash. Surely, it is not to gather information in order to make an honest assessment and conclusion. I have yet to see a single instance of that from those who are already convinced that the Church is the greatest source of evil. Nor have I seen an attempt to aid in the salvation of those Catholics whom the anti-Catholics fear are destined for hell.

You never know. Sometimes the actual topic can be maintained for many dozen posts.

Yes, some flock at every opportunity to hurt the Church and her members. However, they can't seek to hurt someone else without hurting themselves in the act. The same holds for each person. As it likely becomes obvious eventually that what is enflaming us is poisoning us - I think that this, at the minimum, becomes a chance for growth.
