[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I became an atheist, quietly, in my 30s. It’s been perplexing— at times sickening— to watch my hardcore Catholic parents ignore the rampant sex abuse the church has been convicted of. They’ve gone as far as saying either, “so what, never happened to me” or insisting most of the accusations are lies. This behavior has convinced me they care more about the religion and receiving the blessings than what is simply right and wrong.

No surprise they are ardent Trump supporters — way beyond simply “I like the tax break” and insist the accusations against him — they talk about him as if he’s Christ returned—are all false, fake news. Same mindset.[/quote]

What a strange train of thought- catholic priest do bad things therefore the church too is bad and therefore god never existed  :roll: [/quote]

that's not  the train of thought I heard. It sounded more like -- After I became an atheist, I was sickened to see the role that religion played in my parents' lives.  [/quote]

I heard pp train of thought too. Priests molested children! The basis for all god is therefore false!

Hardly a convincing argument [/quote]
