Of course you aren't cupcake. Just throwing it out there, I understand. It isn't as though there is a vast ocean of sexual proclivities which you could have used to make your comparison, and you certainly don't keep droning on about it.

The link is that the Catholic Church is an institution that harbors pedophiles. They keep them employed, cover up their crimes and otherwise help keep them out of jail. They are given the opportunity to abuse up to hundreds of children (yes, this has happened) before anyone does anything. Who lets this happen? The Catholic Church. I'm amused that you are even arguing it. Most Christians I know that aren't Catholic hate Catholics.

Any point reporting posts like this for obvious misrepresentation?
Oh, yes, absolutely. You should report it, as it clearly violates the rules you didn't bother to read.
I actually did bother to read the rules.
Now you've just misrepresented someone too.
LOL
I'm not reporting anyone for anything until I've settled in a bit longer.
I'm not a fan of bare-knuckle AvT but free speech is important too.

Report me for it. 
Well, if you thought that was a reportable offense or even might be, you clearly didn't comprehend the rules. I had given you the benefit of the doubt and just assumed you hadn't read them. Of course, I never have, either.

Rules...at AF, you mean like "Two men enter, one man leaves"?

Are you insinuating that was a joke? You forgot the punch line.

I really think we need a Thunderdome subforum in The Pit. Debates for badasses.

Oh, I really hope you are reporting them. Now that would be a punch line.

Hmm. What, exactly, do you think I'm arguing? All I did was ask you for the basis of your inference.
I'm wondering what to make of your statement here. It makes sense on its own, but it doesn't explain why you think, for example, that "There just happens to be an awful lot of Catholics doing it", because the Church's response to abuse is a separate issue from the rate of abuse among Catholics (and the rate of Catholicism among abuseres). (And you still haven't answered my question about what exactly "an awful lot" meant.)
“The truth of our faith becomes a matter of ridicule among the infidels if any Catholic, not gifted with the necessary scientific learning, presents as dogma what scientific scrutiny shows to be false.”
