(2,770 posts)that my post which you linked to clearly says the exact opposite of what you are attributing to it as having said, you go on to post the same link TWICE MORE as an example of people calling Catholics 'pedophile enablers', etc.
For someone who never stops bragging about her education, her lofty intelligence, and her vast world experience in at least a dozen different 'careers', I find it mind-boggling that you could read the post you persist in linking to - in which I staunchly defend the Catholic faith and those who practice it - and read into that any remote notion that I called Catholics 'pedophiles', 'pedophile enablers', or stated that contributing money to the Church makes a Catholic complicit in the crimes the clergy have committed.
Your latest 'career', to hear you tell it, is that of a news reporter/journalist. Has anyone ever told you that checking your quotes for accuracy is part of journalism? Has anyone ever pointed out to you that attributing statements to someone who never made those statements is not only poor journalism, but unethical in the extreme?
Apparently not. Even if I am one of the four thousand people you have on your famous 'ignore list' and you are not seeing my replies to you, others in this thread have pointed out to you that my post, which you keep linking to, DOES NOT SAY what you insist it says.
And yet you persist. Rather than admit you are wrong, you simply continue.
Well, you may not be seeing this post - but others here will. And they can draw their own conclusions about your 'interpretation' of the post you have linked to, and what kind of person would persist in attributing truly disgusting statements to someone who never made them.
