That is generally the tactic of the anti-Catholic. Never acknowledge that they are wrong, just move on to the next attack until they find something that the Catholic cannot answer. The author is absolutely right on here, as he is throughout this excellent piece.
The behavior pattern he describes arises because the anti-Catholic ideologue is operating according to an "Inspector Javert" methodology ... the question is not whether the suspect (the Catholic Church) is guilty -- that has already been decided in the affirmative -- the question is simply what evidence can be made to "stick".

So, confess to us why YOU are guilty!
