Yes, answer this question. The church (many different offshoots as well) systematically, and have a well documented, history of downplaying, discrediting victims, and shuffling around pedophile priests to other parishes, where they repeat offend. This is not a secret. Read some of the cases from the massive investigations of the last few years. So many priests were simply quietly moved from one church to another. There was so much forgiveness from senior clergy so as not to embarrass the church. It only took massive pressure and media attention for any real transparency. So you come on here bashing nambla, which we are all aware is disgusting and shouldn’t exist, but you won’t say the same about pedophile hiding Catholicism, or Ted Haggard harboring, or all the other church related stuff? Why won’t you disavow an organization with such a poor track record and so much damage done to some many children? |
Reading and derailment fail. 1. People have answered your questions about churches at least a dozen times on this thread. Go back and read them. 2. This isn’t a thread about religion, there are already plenty of those. |
There are no atheist leaders. We don't have a Head of Atheism. Some people have organizations where they talk about atheism, apparently, but that's their own thing. And yes, if those organizations support or conceal child abuse, they should be dismantled and disavowed. |
So you want to preserve child-molesting organizations when they are religious organizations. Got it. Well, we aren’t going to agree on moral matters, that is for sure. I fully support cancellation of Dawkins, Silverman, and Harris, of course, but you already knew that. |
So in summary, yes. |
No, I don't pre-read then before you post them.
I have condemned any child sexual abuse on this thread at least as many times as you have spoken against the religious. Those were posts pages ago. Did you not read them? |
Dawkins is an author of atheist books and he also said mild pedophilia is okay. That doesn’t make him the leader of the atheist movement. You so badly want that to be true, and you keep harping on it like a broken record, but it simply isn’t. He is not the pope. The pope on the other hand leads a millions strong organization that definitely has a clear and concrete history of child molestation to the tune of hundreds (maybe millions through the centuries) of children and yet you can’t simply disavow the pedastry of the church and agree that it should be disbanded. Why is that? Because you’re a zealot and your attempts at deflection are transparent and don’t stand up to scrutiny. |
She answered it. She supports keeping organizations intact that support pedophilia so long as they are called “churches.” It is a morally disgusting position of course, but that is her belief. |
OMFG. 1. Atheist sexual misconduct isn’t just about NAMBLA. Stop hiding behind NAMBLA, it’s cowardly and dishonest. 2. Multiple people including me have condemned religious pedophilia on this thread. Despite the fact that this isn’t a thread about religious abuse and there are plenty of DCUM threads about religious abuse already. 3. If you really want to talk about religion and abuse, stop trying to derail this thread and instead start yet another thread on that. See if you get any takers who think discussing the issue with dishonest trolls would be a productive use of their time. |
Puhleeze, could you be any more dishonest. |
Are you proud of being a lying troll? |
You kicked off this thread with a focus on nambla, so I’m not “hiding behind” anything. Got any more super great example of atheist pedophiles? Let’s hear em? Hitler? Mussolini? We’re all breathless waiting for you to expound on the millions of atheist pedophiles. I mean we’re over in reality, presenting you endless tangible and verified cases of church led pedophilia, but would really like to see what aces up your sleeve you’ve got. We all agree Dawkins is a piece of sht, I guess. His comment was gross, but at least there is no proof he actually molested a child unlike all the priest stories in the news linked in includes in previous threads, but please post your atheist figures. We’ll wait. Or we’re you just starting a thread with a shoddy example because you’re playing 4d chess? |
She’s not a lying troll. That poster indicated it’s “better to work from within” when comes to church and pedophila rather than to disband them if they are rotten enough, which from all the hiding of perverts, cover ups, abuse of power and the like, would be the best course of action. I’m sorry you don’t like to hear that, but that poster has not directly called for disavowing and closing church’s with pedophile problems, so there is a double standard. |
Great response. You are debate team captain for today. |
I kicked off this thread with a focus on the two atheist orgs that employed the predator, Dawkins, Harris, and then NAMBLA1. Everybody can read the first page of the thread, so you should probably stop lying. Stop trying to derail this thread to talk about religion. There are already plenty of threads talking about religious abuse, or start your own new one. You look dishonest again, and pathetic. |
