Just keep living in that dream world where ministers and their flock are living unblemished lives in which no child or young adult is ever abused or hurt. Just believe that those butch women ministers are not radical lesbians who worship Gaia but, in fact, follow the Bible religiously. And those divorced gay Protestant priests and ministers are just men who have irreconcilable differences with their “spouses” - rather than one partner was probably caught out too many times at a rest station in New Jersey.
My sarcastic FRiend, your bile and spite are still not statistical studies. Just not. Nowhere have I claimed to know the answers; but just as you know that your Church has many faithful members who are innocent of the accusations made against the church as a whole because of the actions of a few, I know the same about the broad sweep of non-Catholic Christians. If you have a reputable source of actual stats, I’d like to read about it. Gossip and “empirical data” just don’t cut it for me.
I spent the greater part of last week defending your church against horrible propaganda around the Tuam home in Ireland, which the left is trying to gin up into an anti-Catholic scandal. How about demonstrating your Christian chops instead of playing nyah nyah? It unbecomes someone who knows ¡stars!
Just keep living in that dream world where ministers priests and their flock are living unblemished lives in which no child or young adult is ever abused or hurt. Just believe that those butch women ministers nuns are not radical lesbians who worship Gaia but, in fact, follow the Bible Catholic church religiously. And those divorced vow of celibacy breaking gay Protestant Catholic priests and ministers are just men who have irreconcilable differences with their “spouses” - rather than one partner was probably caught out too many times at a rest station in New Jersey are "sinners" and "only human just like the rest of us (which is a real indictment against the Catholics who own those priests in their admission of what's in their heart)
Just keep pretending that the Catholic church has a spotless history, that it has never done anything wrong, that it never dealt wrongly with those priests who did molest little boys, that it never turned a blind eye to those situations, that it never tried to intimidate people into silence by threatening them with their eternal salvation, that its leaders were never immoral, that it never compromised on sin......
