1) Post flamebait. Act_of_Reparation Jan 2019 #1
3 unfounded accusations. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #2
I have asked you the same question at least 2 dozen times. So far, no answer. trotsky Jan 2019 #3
Expected evasion. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #6
Thank you for admitting your lack of answering is expected evasion. trotsky Jan 2019 #12
Oh, ok. Let me found them. Act_of_Reparation Jan 2019 #4
What? guillaumeb Jan 2019 #10
You feel the things you post here are in the interest of dialogue and debate? Act_of_Reparation Jan 2019 #21
And you accuse me. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #25
Your point being? Act_of_Reparation Jan 2019 #30
What the hell do YOU consider to be dialog and debate, gil? trotsky Jan 2019 #22
Knowing this DU'er as I do, flamebaiting and crying are NOT on the agenda. niyad Jan 2019 #5
He supports exemptions for clergy from mandatory reporting laws. trotsky Jan 2019 #7
Laughable. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #11
Yes indeed, your evasion is. trotsky Jan 2019 #16
Have you read #14 yet? guillaumeb Jan 2019 #17
Read and answered. trotsky Jan 2019 #19
And there is this reply, from the original thread, that you ignored or missed: guillaumeb Jan 2019 #14
You are carefully trying to skirt the question. trotsky Jan 2019 #18
Allow me to make this very clear: guillaumeb Jan 2019 #23
YOU ARE UNSURE???? trotsky Jan 2019 #26
Attorneys are not subject to the requirement. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #32
Whataboutism. trotsky Jan 2019 #35
Avoid reality if you wish. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #38
Avoid reality? I just explained reality to you. trotsky Jan 2019 #40
No, you explained what your preferred narrative is. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #42
Nope, reality. And no one is because no one gives a shit about your diversion. trotsky Jan 2019 #50
"everyone should be a mandated reporter" Major Nikon Jan 2019 #106
Another silly accusation. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #126
Amazing, isn't it? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #80
WHAT SAY YOU ABOUT THE THREE ACCUSATIONS? trotsky Jan 2019 #100
Glad you asked Major Nikon Jan 2019 #105
I don't think you understand, you see. trotsky Jan 2019 #108
The headline should have given it away Major Nikon Jan 2019 #109
As he's admitted, he was raised Catholic. trotsky Jan 2019 #110
You start to notice a pattern of behavior Major Nikon Jan 2019 #113
The article headline is misleading marylandblue Jan 2019 #111
Not sure how you get there Major Nikon Jan 2019 #112
Because it's true it won't "solve" the crisis marylandblue Jan 2019 #114
Which makes it obvious strawman rhetoric Major Nikon Jan 2019 #115
Yes, well, I am just talking about the headline marylandblue Jan 2019 #116
As am I when I say it's obvious strawman rhetoric Major Nikon Jan 2019 #117
Obvious to you. Not obvious to me until I read the article. marylandblue Jan 2019 #118
Don't forget Lordquinton Jan 2019 #121
LOL oh yeah, that one too. trotsky Jan 2019 #123
It's true, it's damn true Lordquinton Jan 2019 #129
The RCC is the one supporting the position that makes it easier to rape children Major Nikon Jan 2019 #79
Your insight is noted. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #84
Explain again how you are unsure that child rape prevention laws are a good idea Major Nikon Jan 2019 #86
Sorry to avoid your diversion. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #87
... Major Nikon Jan 2019 #89
Then explain the flamebaiting and crying. Act_of_Reparation Jan 2019 #8
nice try. niyad Jan 2019 #9
Do you think clergy should be exempted from mandatory reporting laws... trotsky Jan 2019 #13
See #14 guillaumeb Jan 2019 #15
Read and responded to. trotsky Jan 2019 #20
Er what? They are sop. Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #73
You forgot to emphasize this phrase: MineralMan Jan 2019 #24
Plus, it is 2019. Act_of_Reparation Jan 2019 #27
No, you misunderstand the term "apologia for child rape". guillaumeb Jan 2019 #28
Oh dear. No, Guy, I do not misunderstand the term. MineralMan Jan 2019 #31
You might clearly feel that you are correct here, guillaumeb Jan 2019 #34
You posted the article, with your approbation. MineralMan Jan 2019 #37
You are incorrect in your assertion that this is apologetics. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #43
Apologetics trotsky Jan 2019 #58
No, it is not. Not even close to correct. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #59
You are free to disagree. trotsky Jan 2019 #61
And you are free to say that black is white, guillaumeb Jan 2019 #62
"solution may not be the solution" Major Nikon Jan 2019 #95
You don't get to define things for others. trotsky Jan 2019 #101
You demand the right to define black as white, and up as down. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #124
Nope, you're trying to do the defining here. trotsky Jan 2019 #125
And you are arguing that you are "the definer". guillaumeb Jan 2019 #127
You have convinced yourself. trotsky Jan 2019 #128
Thank you for agreeing with me, guillaumeb Jan 2019 #64
Oh dear. trotsky Jan 2019 #102
I thought he was the "decider" Major Nikon Jan 2019 #96
Its untrue because you misquoted me Major Nikon Jan 2019 #98
BWAH HA HA HA trotsky Jan 2019 #103
Laughable. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #122
The only qualification I made was your fuckup trying to quote me Major Nikon Jan 2019 #130
This would earn you a failed grade in any level debate class. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #131
You just said "I stuck my dick in a light socket". Those are your words. Major Nikon Jan 2019 #132
Which is about on the level of your 3 accusations. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #133
So why did you repeatedly apologize for posting RCC rape apologia? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #134
Even worse. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #135
Why would I take credit for your idea? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #136
Which socket type? MineralMan Jan 2019 #137
No offense but those are bulbs not sockets Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #138
Good point, but before one can specify the socket, one must know what bulb MineralMan Jan 2019 #139
Did you just assume gender? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #140
I believe there was a reference to a "dick" in a light socket above. MineralMan Jan 2019 #142
Those were his words, not mine Major Nikon Jan 2019 #143
Please forgive me if I have erred in the attribution of MineralMan Jan 2019 #145
Well I don't suggest any one try it, but if you were interested marylandblue Jan 2019 #149
It's a metaphor, see. MineralMan Jan 2019 #150
Well some men have been sticking their dicks in strange objects for thousands of years marylandblue Jan 2019 #151
And Billly-Bob said, "Let there be light," and flipped the switch. MineralMan Jan 2019 #152
Oh so you are a bulb determines the socket sort of person? Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #141
I reject your criticism on the following grounds: MineralMan Jan 2019 #144
Sometimes when you descend down the Rabbit of Caerbannog's hole... Major Nikon Jan 2019 #146
One would need a detailed map, I'd think, MineralMan Jan 2019 #147
GPS is useless underground Major Nikon Jan 2019 #148
Gil has punted. trotsky Jan 2019 #29
He's of two minds about it, then. MineralMan Jan 2019 #33
More ad hominem and vague accusations? guillaumeb Jan 2019 #36
Just analysis, Guy. Analysis. MineralMan Jan 2019 #39
You seem unsure about that term as well. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #44
.. MineralMan Jan 2019 #47
Yes, it is good to retreat from the unsupportable claim. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #52
... Major Nikon Jan 2019 #94
So what kind of grade did you earn for calling multiple people here "intolerant", Gil? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #99
Well, at this moment there are 2 DUers who have recommended his thread. trotsky Jan 2019 #104
... Major Nikon Jan 2019 #41
3 train wrecks. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #45
I'm sure you have faith in that Major Nikon Jan 2019 #48
And there is more: guillaumeb Jan 2019 #46
Yeah, whatabout that? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #49
What about your 3 claims? guillaumeb Jan 2019 #53
Still think it's a better idea to parrot out the RCC's side of this story Major Nikon Jan 2019 #65
SO the 3 claims are unsupportable? guillaumeb Jan 2019 #67
If you want to pretend I'm agreeing with the RCCs child rape apologia have at it Major Nikon Jan 2019 #69
This is the Religion Group, Guy. MineralMan Jan 2019 #51
Theists are humans. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #55
Nope. The Religion Group is for discussions of MineralMan Jan 2019 #56
Focus on the term "child rape apologia". guillaumeb Jan 2019 #57
No. I'm focusing on religion and child sexual abuse. MineralMan Jan 2019 #60
Your focus is skewed. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #63
Sez You... MineralMan Jan 2019 #74
Your something is showing. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #83
LOL! MineralMan Jan 2019 #75
Yeah, some are unsure about whether or not child rape prevention laws are a good idea Major Nikon Jan 2019 #81
Focus. or continue with your meme. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #85
And you will lose and then welch on the bet Major Nikon Jan 2019 #88
Laughable. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #90
You are the only one laughing over child rape apologia Major Nikon Jan 2019 #91
Even more laughable. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #92
Sounds like you are the "decider" Major Nikon Jan 2019 #93
#Whataboutism n/t trotsky Jan 2019 #54
The fact that you started this thread Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #66
The thread concerns unsupported accusations. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #68
I understand that is what you thought it was about. Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #70
So you admit that there is no defense for the claims. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #71
No I admit that you made yet another huge blunder. Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #72
Gil's latest canned reply is to pretend you agreed with him Major Nikon Jan 2019 #77
So confusing... MineralMan Jan 2019 #78
I thought as much. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #82
The more you kick this disaster of a thread Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #97
Not THAT interesting, really. MineralMan Jan 2019 #76
The Pope could change the Cannon laws regarding confessor confidentiality. njhoneybadger Jan 2019 #107
He said he's unsure whether the RCC should report child rape to the cops Major Nikon Jan 2019 #119
That priest probably confessed to another priest he's a child raper. njhoneybadger Jan 2019 #120
He could, that is true. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #153
It would if they're were in jail njhoneybadger Jan 2019 #154
Jail is one solution. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #155
Mandatory reporting laws decrease and prevent child sexual predation. njhoneybadger Jan 2019 #156
Agreed, for repeat offenders. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #158
Not even one? Voltaire2 Jan 2019 #157
Your hypothesis. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #159
No Gil, it's the "hypothesis" of numerous child welfare organizations Major Nikon Jan 2019 #163
Link to it. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #164
Already did, Gil. You know the one you dismissed within moments of it being posted Major Nikon Jan 2019 #168
And: guillaumeb Jan 2019 #166
Why are you even posting something that has absolutely nothing to do with mandatory reporting, Gil? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #167
Read the highlighted parts. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #169
The article has nothing to do with mandatory reporting, Gil. Nada. Zip. Not even mentioned. Major Nikon Jan 2019 #172
Pathetic, isn't it? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #160
Sure, Gil. What better "author" than a RCC priest to tell us what won't prevent child rape Major Nikon Jan 2019 #161
Delusion is thinking that predators will simply stop. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #162
No Gil, delusion is thinking the RCC is where you go to get solutions for child rape prevention Major Nikon Jan 2019 #165
Nobody said predators will "simply stop" and that is not the purpose of mandatory reporting marylandblue Jan 2019 #170
I have no personal objection. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #171
You said you were "unsure" if the RCC should be required to tell the authorities about child rape Major Nikon Jan 2019 #173
And that was based on the information that the author wrote as to the efficacy guillaumeb Jan 2019 #174
The author is an RCC priest who is saying secular laws on child rape shouldn't apply to the RCC Major Nikon Jan 2019 #175
Your framing is incorrect. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #176
Oh bullshit, Gil. The author is a RCC priest. Your own source says so. Major Nikon Jan 2019 #183
Simple, yes. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #186
Yeah, kinda funny how you claim there's a contradiction which you refuse to explain Major Nikon Jan 2019 #189
And here is an excerpt that proves my point: guillaumeb Jan 2019 #177
The priest wants an exception for confession, and people here object to that marylandblue Jan 2019 #180
The often repeated claim: guillaumeb Jan 2019 #181
Well, that is what that priest wants marylandblue Jan 2019 #184
The claim is "child rape apologia". guillaumeb Jan 2019 #187
instead of focusing on the definition of "child rape apologia" marylandblue Jan 2019 #190
The accusation is incorrect. And words do matter. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #191
Substance matters more than words, marylandblue Jan 2019 #192
The RCC thinks the RCC should be exempt from laws that protect children from child rape Major Nikon Jan 2019 #182
And you insist on demonstrating your agenda. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #185
So you are now the decider on what I do or don't understand? Major Nikon Jan 2019 #188
And away we go. tymorial Jan 2019 #178
Thus it has ever been. guillaumeb Jan 2019 #179
