"So, Jim, quit your snide remarks."
I see you have chosen your side in the homophobic argument Joe - how dare you call my criticism of a constant barrage of homophobic filth 'snide'.
No, I have no intention of ceasing my attempts to stop this homophopbic fanatic who persists in using abused children as a soapbox for his disturbing phobia.
If he has the right to continue spouting bigotry, as he has done on four threads on Clerical abuse, why should I not have the right to express my disgust?
I'm afraid you are going to have to ban me from this thread - and, in effect, from this forum.
I find his attacks on a legitimate way of life totally unacceptable - as should you as a Christian and the decent human being I believed you to be should.
Did you know that between 1933-45 the Nazis arrested 100,000 men for being homosexuals; an estimated 15,000 died in the concentration camps - so homophobia such as we have seen displayed here comes with an excellent pedigree.
I find it extremely telling that you continue to avoid straight questions, nor do you back up your accusations that I and others have been unfair to the church.
Make up you mind which side you and your Christianity are on.
