My purpose was to illustrate that the abuse scandal is not an exclusively Catholic issue but a human failing that affects all faiths and organizations that are made up of imperfect people. Where we differ is that I have worked "in my own back yard" to address the problem and expressed compassion for all victims, not just those of the Catholic clergy. You on the other hand lurk almost exclusively on Catholic subject threads and take every opportunity to re-exploit the victims in service to your anti-Catholic agenda. Denying that molestation scandals have occurred in Calvinist organizations is just plain lying.
Which is, of course, why you've made so many posts and threads about the abuses that have occured within your own church. Gotcha.

And how would you know what I've done in my own backyard? Have you been spying on me? Usually when someone spies on me, I get phone calls from heavy breathers, asking me what kind of underwear I have on.

"Almost exclusively"??? I've made a total of 3,187 threads and 12,683 in-thread posts over nine years. So you've read all of them, and can accurately summarize my entire nine-year posting history with that one statement? "Almost exclusively" and "every opportunity" would mean a sizeable majority of those will be about abuse scandals.
I think I've just been Nifonged!
You know, it's funny that just four short months ago - almost to the day - you were saying
And then just yesterday you were sayingI am a Catholic and a conservative American. I have never felt any anti-Catholic bias from Free Republic or any of the moderators. There are a handful of posters that are chronic anti-Catholics but they are few and simply letting them spool out their thoughts is repudiation enough. Like the saying goes, I may not agree with what they say, but I will defend to the death their right to say it.

Your professed ability to detect "anti-Catholic bias" and "anti-Christian agendas" is suspect, to say the least.Don't get your expectations up too much. I have learned how to navigate with and around the inherent anti-Catholic bias of FR.

Who's denied it? When? I've made a total of 3,187 threads and 12,683 in-thread posts up until now. Show me the one(s) in which I denied it.
