All the more reason I'd think to get fired up and take your church back from those that have shamed it, no? -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 18, 11:37 6
- This, really, is all I'm saying. nm - Dignan Mar 18, 11:40
- If you want to qualify that you are upset with Catholics who are not trying to do this, in whatever way they think best, I concur. - TFox Mar 18, 11:40 3
  - voluntarily being a member of a organisation thet hides and helps widespread abuse should not be desirable - Danedukenuuk Mar 18, 11:57
  - I'd think quite honestly that getting a group of Catholics pissed off at their leaders to do SOMETHING would be the easiest thing known to man - Will Hunting Mar 18, 11:43 1

yes. My brother is a member of the clergy. He is not a pedophile and does not support pedophilia (for eff's sake, who would?). - loosilu Mar 18, 11:37 37
- So wait, there is a member of your family that is not fucked up? -- nm - Kick Ass Mar 18, 11:56 2
  - dude. -- nm - b. Mar 18, 12:01
  - this right here is very not cool. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 12:00

        you'r telling they are not? -- nm - Danedukenuuk Mar 18, 11:52
    - Well stop calling her brother a pedophile, JD. -- nm - Jim Mar 18, 11:49
  - "I can't believe every priest engaged in this!" - there, now someone has said it. - Beryllium Mar 18, 11:47
- I don't think he's said it's all at all, and you have to agree that it would only be good if those who are in the church and who are opposed to what - b. Mar 18, 11:42 19
  - well, this is why I wanted to stay out of the discussion. - loosilu Mar 18, 11:54 17
    - ... - b. Mar 18, 12:00
    - To be fair - Dignan Mar 18, 11:58 14

        jack, we get it. -- nm - b. Mar 18, 12:08
        
        I agree with that. the problem is that they seem to spread to everyone. -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 12:06

        and now it's degenerated to genuine attacks on her family, which I'm sure you'll be quick to condemn. nm - Dignan Mar 18, 12:04 6

        It's not your role. Nor was it mine to call her out. nm - Dignan Mar 18, 12:11 4

        Ah, I see what you're saying. I didn't realize you were referring specifically to the Spawn/loosi situation. - Dignan Mar 18, 12:22
    - Well look at how you respond to them? You're taking this personally, as if we're all saying your brother is a pedophile. No one is saying that, - Jim Mar 18, 11:56
  - Another great point. You hear that about Islam *all the time.* nm - Dignan Mar 18, 11:45

  - who the eff said he is not furious? -- nm - loosilu Mar 18, 11:53 5
    - he should be furious enough to speak out is the point. has he? if not, why not? what level of badness would it take to say something against the - b. Mar 18, 11:55 4
      - wtf? he does what he feels he has to do. are you assuming he is doing nothing? - loosilu Mar 18, 11:57 3
        
        Actually...she's asking you if he's doing anything...not assuming anything at all. -- nm - Jim Mar 18, 11:58 2
        
        yes. -- nm - b. Mar 18, 12:02
