“Your comparison is ridiculous.”

Why is it ridiculous? It completely changes the tenor of the thread - which is what you support. In my example, it becomes anti-Catholic. In the one that you continue to defend it becomes anti-Protestant.

Both falsely (and provocatively) frame the article title - but according to you are completely acceptable.

On "open" threads in the Religion Forum, taking umbrage at a particular style of posting, sourcing, phrasing, translation, omissions, bias, etc. should be expected. That is normal in town square style debate.

Just be careful to keep the debate on the issues themselves and not the individual Freepers.

Because it equates one parenthetical "protestant" with another parenthetical "Catholic Priest Altar-boy buggers excluded."

Frankly, you reveal a certain something about yourself merely by coming up with that language, hypothetical or not.
