I was going to comment but I think at this point other people in this thread have done a fine job of showing the error of the OP. Plus the fact he hasn't responded, and that it was his first post tends to make me think he won't likely respond.

You'd almost think that the people apparently chosen specifically to spread the word of God should be held to a higher moral standard or something.
But that's crazy talk.

Especially when they claim to have a higher moral standard than the rest of us schmucks.
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

How about that logic? I mean, there are pedophiles in EVERY profession, from medicine to teaching to lawn mowers and etc. Therefore, we should just avoid everything because, according to my logic, there are pedophiles in every profession. Just become an agoraphobic and stay inside your house, everyone, since there are pedophiles out there in EVERY profession.
Also, I just LOVE the way that some people (especially of a certain political and/or religious persuasion) just LOVE to trash Catholicism because SOME (although in my opinion it is rare) priests are pedophiles.
Well, I'm going to avoid western medicine and trash it since some MDs are pedophiles.
I mean, logically, this makes perfect sense, doesn't it?
Not really no.

Or how about just hold them to the same standard?
I mean, could you imagine if an atheist organization was exposed and shown to be orchestrating a worldwide cover-up of hundreds of child rapes?
Jesus is like Pinocchio. He's the bastard son of a carpenter. And a liar. And he wishes he was real.

It's basically the difference between this:
and this:
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
