lol. Apparently RC apologists believe there are NO Roman Catholic websites unless they post them. lol.

I don't know what an RC apologist is, so I will let that go for now. The site that you brought up is not a Roman Catholic website; it is not even a Catholic one. It uses the term 'Catholic' on the site in the same manner that the OPC uses the term 'Christian'. They are equally true - or should I say - false.

Deny the evidence all you want. Same old/same old.

The evidence that you brought is approximately of the same value that most of your evidence is. I bring you evidence of the CUNY study with complete methodology (and as a scientist and engineer, I must say that their methodology is quite satisfactory for a blind study). You post statements about somebody's else's statements about somebody else's statements about a study that has no methology or raw data or any sort of scientific methodology about it.

Your postings that purport to contain the Gospel message are overwhelmingly snippets from Paul or verses from the OT. Same as your doctrinal proofs.

But start protecting your children from Rome’s pederast priestcraft because they are creating the next generation of homosexuals.

You have no clue as to the situation as it is. I was an altar boy from a young age and have been very involved in the Church most of my life. I have never known or known of a child molesting incident in which I knew or knew of any of the victims or perpetrators (except in far off news coverage). Exactly none of my six siblings were molested or knew of any molesting. My parents didn't. My extended family didn't. My neighbours and fellow parishioners didn't.

Any of the failed Catholics that you know were molested?

The (heinous) sins of the few taint all. Agreed. But the actions of Arianna Huffington and Jack Abramoff do not invalidate the entire Republican Party.

Something RC apologists don’t seem too concerned about.

My responsibilities to my family are not to be paraded about for the amusement of pagan barbarians claiming to be civilized. Or Christian.

Keep denying the facts. It doesn’t matter other than to serve as one more example of RC misdirection and ignorance.

For your edification...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_the_United_States

"The largest religion in the US is Christianity, practiced by the majority of the population (76% in 2008[4]). From those queried, roughly 51.3% of Americans are Protestants, 25% are Catholics, and 1.7% are Mormons (the name commonly used to refer to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints), and 1.7% to various other Christian denominations.[16]"

And as the Pew study pointed out, those Protestants who self-identify as Evangelical are now the largest denomination, making up over 26% of the population of the U.S.
