You have carved up and distorted my statements, omitted and ignored salient points, and written a screed attacking The entire church over the alleged actions of just a few.

I don't mind discussing this with rational people, but I have given up arguing with the irrational for Lent.

When and if you become a rational person, get back to me.

May God Bless you.

I did NOT carve up and distort your statements - I copied them EXACTLY as written and I omitted and ignored nothing! Thanks for showing when presented with truth the 'let's flip it and say things were omitted and distorted' tactic is needed. That's the catholic rational way to deal with an opposing view.

IMO, it's more like you can't handle my rational when presented along side your comments as it took the winds out of your sail and can't comment is more like it. But true to catholic form, it's someone else's fault. And true to catholic form, any comment not aligned with theirs is considered ARGUING. That's where they get their 'anti' - everyone against them - agree w/me or you are not rational.

How rational is it saying ..just a few? In this case alone, there are 37 priests. How many more would be needed to breakthrough your 'just a few' thresh hold?

And true to catholic form, it's all about the church and not a word about the victims. Can't have all this evil within the church taint the church. So much for the lenten season - truly, it's just business as usual. No substance, everything for appearance sake.

When and if you become a rational person, get back to me.

When and if you accept the severity of covering up crimes and sins, when 37 is not just a few, and when perpetrators and enablers are no longer seen as victims, when seeing your EXACT words posted is not carving up or distorting - you can speak of rational.

May God Bless you.

And yet you say It is all about personal accountability to God for our actions. Apparently, you know little of that which you demean.

For appearance sake in play. However, He has blessed me as I walk in His blessings daily as I take His Word as THE Final Authority.
