Catholic apologist argues against his own point

submitted by snoozn
1 decade 4 years 2 months ago

This idiot argues that teachers abuse at the same rates as priests, but nobody ever talks about them. His own numbers disprove his point. He seems to have no idea that the high level cover-ups are as big a part of the story as the initial abuse. He also manages to drag gays and abortion into the debate in a completely meaningless way.

I'm not sure this guy could be any more stupid. Here's the comment I tried to leave on his site, but it's "pending approval" and approval doesn't seem likely:
"Using YOUR numbers, the abuse rate of priests is STILL higher than that of teachers (.52% priests, .43% teachers) . Per hour, a kid is SEVEN TIMES more likely to be abused by a PRIEST than a TEACHER! This is assuming your own numbers are correct (with an average 23 hours per week with a teacher and 4 hours per week with a priest) Please tell me about school administrators covering up for and moving around their pedophile employees. Oh, that's right, that's a job for catholic bishops. Catholic FAIL!"
Also, I love the way he implies that priest abuse is all gay, which makes it the fault of the evil homos, even showing a little rainbow flag under a priest collar. I think the many girls abused by priests would beg to differ. I'm not even sure what point he's making with the abortion stuff: abuse is the fault of Planned Parenthood? Wha.....????? Is it okay to abuse and impregnate a girl as long as she has the baby??? Okay, I'll stop. GRRRRRR.

People who worship a glass religion shouldn't throw stones

oh wow, terrible.

Moving this video to snoozn's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

*beg

Sending this video to Beggar's Canyon to plea for a little attention - beg requested by original submitter snoozn.
