Imagine you were a member of the Mafia and you were found to have raped a child. You wouldn’t have the life expectancy of a house fly.

In the meantime, Islam endorses Pederasty.

Gee, you guys are really active today. This must be about the third time a thread on this has been posted.

One thing that really surprised and depressed me when I started to read FR was to learn how much Protestants hate Catholics.

True.

But we are talking about Rome.

Our country is going down the drain and what inspires some here? It’s telling, isn’t it?

***This must be about the third time a thread on this has been posted.***

If Priests would stay away from children we wouldn’t be having this conversation, would we?

What in the world does this have to do with “hating Catholics?”

Priests molest children.
The church ignores the fact that priests are are molesting children.

You feelings of martyrdom at the hands of FR Protestants are misplaced.

Just out of curiosity, how much of the money you gave to your local parish went to clean us this mess?

If you are so worried why aren’t you burning up the phone line to your representatives instead of lurking on the Religion Forum FR?

I have discovered that, unofficially, that about a fourth of Protestants are Protestants specifically for their hatred of Catholics. Love of Jesus comes a distant second to these types.

To the credit of the other 3/4 of Protestants, they'd like people like Gamecock to shut their piehole and focus on the enemy (atheists, radical muslims, liberal secularists, etc) rather than allies.

When I first joined FR, over ten years ago, there were a few blatant KKK types that I had booted off of this site. I haven't seen it in quite some time...I think they've learned what lines can not be crossed and what is tolerated. Unfortunately Catholic bashing won't get you banned on this site.

So do you endorse the behavior of Priests?

That’s the way it seems when you attack the messenger and not the horrible damage done by Roman Catholic Priests over the decades.

Somehow I think speaking out against PEDOPHILES is exactly what Jesus would have done.

Do you find yourself in a false dilemma often?

That's the way it seems when that oddity is offered as rebuttal to a comment about one-trick ponies.

I believe it truly shows that Satan is terrified of the Catholic Church.

You're probably just like most freepers - an excellent multi-tasker. :)
