Onthebeach, I played the ball and outed the man (try actually "reading" my post on the previous page). Many good Catholics work hard within the church, worldwide, to purge Catholicism of pedophilia, often to no avail and great internal opposition. Runner is NOT one of those Catholics.

Runner offers the "rapists" excuse when defending Catholicism. The rapist's excuse is, "but, but. but ... I'm not the only guy who rapes women, other guys do it too". And Runner's version of the excuse is "child abuse has occurred not only in the RC church".

So when Runner sees criticism of Catholicism pedophilia, he *IMMEDIATELY* ignores the victims, and *RUSHES* in with the rapist's defence. It's the reputation of Catholicism put first, and the plight of the victims put last.

Nhoj,

Here's a little tip to help with your illiteracy:

Sexism is prejudice or discrimination based on a person's sex or gender. Calling someone an idiot, untrustworthy or a weasel is not gender specific and therefore not sexism. Nor is it racism, ageism, homophobia etc.

If you don't want to look like a pratt, don't post such rubbish.

Claiming all females should have a free pass to avoid criticism is more sexist than anything else on this forum.

I've just been informed Runner is not a Catholic. That makes his defence against criticism of Catholicism pedophilia even stranger still. I guess it's a case of different Christian sects joining forces to defeat criticism of Catholicism pedophilia, in order to protect the forever stained "reputation" of Christianity.

It's Christianity's reputation first, and pedophilia victims last.

Shadow Miniter,

"...However, it is difficult to show restrain when individuals are only capable of slogans and insults."

Lol!...that coming from the biggest insulting name-caller on OLO.

Oh I do love a bit of hypocrisy on a Thursday!

......

Btw...regarding this govt's slimy "everyone must bear the burden" garbage.

Have a gander at this:

http://m.theage.com.au/federal-politics/political-news/budget-help-for-ballet-australian-ballet-schools-new-47m-mansion-20140603-39h29.html

"More than a few eyebrows were raised when young ballerinas emerged as rare winners on budget night, especially after the federal Treasurer declared, ''The age of entitlement is over.''

Tucked away in the budget papers was a $1 million grant for the Australian Ballet School, to help with its purchase of a new boarding residence. Armed with that taxpayer money, the school has spent more than $4.7 million on a mansion."

"On the board of the Australian Ballet School is Daniele Kemp, the high-profile wife of former Liberal arts minister Rod Kemp, a predecessor of George Brandis as arts minister. Mr Kemp is now the chairman of the Institute of Public Affairs, a right-wing lobby group."

Etc...

What a bunch of con-artists.

Yep, that's correct Poirot. They feather the nests of their "own", whilst demonising the poor, sick and needy.
