Dear Sister-I was not talking for you to get sick about abusive priests. The person I was talking about was his justify a sin not about sexual abuse. Two very different things. I am talking about consensual sex not rape.

You get you emotions in check! You are are way overboard!

Think what I put down in writing also I have friends who live the life who believe like you. They believe then act on it. Not just say it. They are real Christians. I know them. Nobodies saying you do that. So do not get stupid!

Stop acting like a child! Amazing! I never thought you would over react until I saw this writing. Calm down.

NOTICE AGAIN!

"He would quote scripture about how he was already forgiven while openly admitting this all because of how screwy this view can go. He knew scripture too.

"how screwy this view can go"

Does not mean you are screwy! The view can go screwy in certain people. Hello!! You are comparing sexual abuse/rape to consensual sex. Go get some coffee and wake up!

By the way there is pack mentality going on on both sides. It does not mean if someone gets personal with you I agree with them. Look at the individual not a group. Stick to the theology.

Check my comments outside of others/people you will see how constant it is in a balanced manner. There is always Divine Mercy of Christ no matter what above all else.

May God Bless you and keep you!!! Relax.

Freeper Regards!

Don't make the thread "about" individual Freepers, that is also a form of "making it personal."

Discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal.

Whoa. I didn't say that to set you off and certainly not to compare one act with another or even suggest they were in any way comparable. My point was simply that you cannot judge a faith tradition by the acts of one who may profess that faith. This is something we get reminded of every time there is a thread that speaks about abuse or any other problem within the Catholic Church. The person you know is flat out wrong for acting that way and we see the exact reason why is because it brings shame upon the name of Christ - just like Paul was so upset with the Corinthians about. So, please, I am not overreacting nor did I say what I did to rile anyone. It was a simple point that I thought would make sense. That's all. So thanks for the concerns about my mental health. I'm okay fine.

I hope you and yours have a very merry Christmas and a happy and healthy new year.
