>> This pervert, again, is protestant ... and should serve as a reminder to protestants of the unwisdom of throwing stones while living in glass houses.<<

You forget that unlike the Catholic Church Protestant churches are not a cohesive organization. The name Protestant is loosely given to any church or group that is not part of the Catholic Church. No one Protestant church has authority or can govern the conduct or practices of any other Protestant church. There are of course some organized Protestant churches but assigning wrong doing in one church to all Protestants would show a lack of understanding of the relationship between Protestant organizations and independent churches.

Right ... very convenient, that. It makes the finger-pointing easier.
