hardly badgering for Metmom's non-Christian group affiliation. It's certain that any group that does not affirm what's in the Nicene Creed is not Christian.

however, in line with what you had asked and metmom screeched about -- we gave you the numbers talking about 0.53% or less of priests who have done these heinuous things and asked why blame the 99.5% of others. Then we pointed out that Protestant pastors have a similar or higher rate and that of secular professions is also higher.

Finally, I asked you what is the comparison to your (or indeed to any other Protestant group)Christian group's prosecution of your pastors that have been accused of molestation. It's a fair comparison.

here we have 99.5% being stained for the allegations against 0.5%, so what is the conviction rate in your Christian group and in metmom's non-Christian group?

I have not revealed my church affiliation with a purpose to that and I wouldn’t encourage others to do so. Catholics wouldn’t need to because we generally can tell just by the dialogue...and you can tell those who are not catholic equally as much. But if people were harping on me to reveal this I would certainly not reveal and wonder why this is such an issue for those doing so.

I’ve not responded to your statics because I don’t put allot of weight into those. The fact is we agree no matter where the abuse occurs..it should be acted on immediately...right?
