"Such precision on Jim's part! 'Seems to remember', does he? In relation to what, precisely?"
It was in regard to my pointing out that a soldier in the Swiss Gaurd was sexually harassed by senior clergy in the Vatican - not a world shattering event until you put it in the context of the thousands of children raped and abused by Clergy from the same stable who had charge over both the bodies and, if we are to believe the pĂ­shoges, the souls of those children
My point is, and remains that all religions pose a threat and have been known to persecute at every level when the circumstance are favourable to do so - a fact Keith has persistently ruled as "offside".
I wonder which side of the percentage of your support for him that sort of thing falls in.
"The moment has passed."
You have persistently operated a sliding scale in all this in making one type of persecution less important than another and attempting, alongside Achey the Invincible, to rule persecution as not being valid to this discussion.
You would claim you don't know what I'm referring to, wouldn't you?
