Roman Catholic Church lowers its standards

[Ben Kenobi]

Yes Ben, that's exactly why we hate you. Especially the numerous Southerners and other Catholics who post here

I'm unaware of anyone who's not a modernist of some stripe here.

[kentonio]

This is true. Most other people here are mentally living in the same century as the rest of us.

Southerner here who knows his Bible, not at all an atheist, and spoke up in the Staff Room last night against allowing religious attacks. I like Kid, though I think he's most always wrong, but I can talk to the guy without getting attacked. Something else at work here.

Since when is Buster staff?

This isn't Panda Forum, Buster.

How are you on the staff? You've only registered five years ago. You're still a noob by Poly standards.

Apparently Aeson's trying to pull a Panda coup.

Ben there are quite a few Christians on this site that I have no problem with. I have a problem with you because you're not a good Christian.

I'm a catholic, my wife is catholic and my daughter is catholic, so the fact that you're catholic isn't the issue, it's that you're such a lousy human being here.
You claim you are IRL but lord knows we don't see that here. So we have nothing else to judge you by.

But please feel free to believe it's just because you're catholic. I guess that's easier to accept than you're just a douche.
At least you didn't blame it on the hearing thing.

And trying to act like and claiming to be are two different things.

I still want to know why the hell you guys aren't simply ignoring him. You can't possibly be silly enough to think you'll change his opinion or have a meaningful/interesting discussion; you're just generating noise and enabling a pathological liar by giving him attention.

Beats me. I kept reporting spam and nagging advising Aeson about forum building -something AC2 proves I know a little about- and he asked me to kill spambots myself and save time. [shrugs] I have all these powers I promised not to use... Aeson announced it in Site weeks ago, and the thread stayed topped until Thursday, so you and Sean's failure to keep informed is not my fault.

P.S. PANDA TAKEOVER!

[Felch]

Wait, there are parts of this site that aren't Off-Topic?

[-Jrabbit]

Vicious rumor. Pay no attention.

[ColdWizard]

Capitalist propaganda.

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

Panda conspiracy.

Would you like to explain why you have a particular urge to concentrate on homosexual child abusing priests rather than hetrosexual child abusing priests? You seem to be focusing on them pretty much exclusively, why is that exactly?

Because he likes to do the avoidance tango. Here is Father O'Grady, subject of 'Deliver Us From Evil' :

Sorry, forgot to add this :

From 1973, when O'Grady's first offense occurred, until he finally went to jail in 1993, he was shuttled from parish to parish in Central California, often after outraged parents were assured that he would be defrocked or at least removed from contact with children. Roger Mahony, the Los Angeles archbishop who oversaw O'Grady's protection for decades, is now a cardinal in the Catholic Church. The film argues persuasively that Mahony orchestrated the O'Grady cover-up to protect his own career.


But what makes Deliver Us From Evil so powerful is O'Grady himself, now living in Ireland after serving seven years of a 14-year sentence. For reasons that never quite emerge, he agrees to meet with Amy Berg for hours of intimate interviews, some of them conducted confessional-style, on a church pew. While he never denies his crimes—indeed, he seems to have a compulsive need to recall them—O'Grady displays a bone-chilling level of dissociation from the suffering caused by his acts. His musical voice never rises above a murmur as he dispenses euphemisms about how "cuddling" and "being affectionate" escalated to "inappropriate touching." These scenes alternate with interviews with his now-grown victims, both male and female, who strip that language bare with their stark accounts of vaginal and anal rape.

Yeah, I don't see why I should give you the time of day, Pax.

Because you claim to be a Christian ?

Here's your big chance to turn the other cheek!
