Women's Equality in the Church is no Longer Negotiable [View all] cbayer Apr 2015 OP

Women's equality in the Catholic Church has NEVER been negotiable skepticscott Apr 2015 #1

It's not negotiable and never will be. That's how the RCC works. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #2

Hate is OK because religion is *special*, you see. trotsky Apr 2015 #3

Please cross post this in Interfaith where it can be discussed okasha Apr 2015 #4

Yes, an echo chamber is probably a better location. trotsky Apr 2015 #5

That's unfair. She didn't ask to post it in A&A. rug Apr 2015 #16

Good point. Trotsky meant an EMPTY echo chamber. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #67

Why do you keep posting there? rug Apr 2015 #69

Because we grow weary and disgusted by your feeble apologia for the RCC. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #71

"we". I was right! rug Apr 2015 #73

'we' As in the denizens of a&a. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #74

"we", as in speaking with one mind. rug Apr 2015 #75

make sure you fill out the tithing application. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #80

"Has the recipient received tithes from St. Brigid's before?" rug Apr 2015 #82

I did. this is how the church disburses some of the contributions it collects. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #87

Yes, it's called "charity". rug Apr 2015 #90

It must, since the RCC has such deep pockets to lobby against same sex marriage and other civil righ AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #93

Circular. rug Apr 2015 #95

Feel free to cross post, okasha cbayer Apr 2015 #6

Can't do it from my phone. okasha Apr 2015 #13

Does a tree make a sound if it falls in the woods and no one hears it? cbayer Apr 2015 #15

Nor is it of consequence if the only response okasha Apr 2015 #17

Exactamente! cbayer Apr 2015 #18

You mean without reminder that the church squashed these nuns? Goblinmonger Apr 2015 #8

Yes, you wouldn't want to be distracted skepticscott Apr 2015 #10

While the outcome is mixed, I think there is some good news here. cbayer Apr 2015 #11

So you're all a-twitter skepticscott Apr 2015 #12

Wow, that bar is pretty low. trotsky Apr 2015 #14

You mean you want to stick your fingers in your ears and pretend its an improvement. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #68

Apparently not as important skepticscott Apr 2015 #19

Why did you post in Interfaith when the hosts asked you not to do that? hrmjustin Apr 2015 #20

Unless you block somomeone, they can post what and where they want. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #22

I will just have to pick up the pieces of my life after your most serious accusation. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #23

You'd be better off seeking a group on reading comprehension instead. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #39

When you lift a hand to help out here I might take what you say seriously. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #41

You are an inspirational role model, sir. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #43

I try sir! hrmjustin Apr 2015 #44

MADem locked the post, not Justin. okasha Apr 2015 #64

First time i got called despicable here. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #96

Not his first mistake. okasha Apr 2015 #97

I stand by the lock. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #98

As you should. okasha Apr 2015 #99

Since you claim that justin had nothing to do with skepticscott Apr 2015 #113

There's that persecution complex and lack of reading comprehension. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #108

Accusing a member of despicable behavior is different from calling that member despicable? rug Apr 2015 #112

Your attempt to walk it back is cute but a fail. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #115

Walk it back? I don't think you're using that correctly. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #118

Why are you talking to me the "despicable" "tyrant" as I have been called. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #124

He didn't call you phil89 Apr 2015 #152

Yeah real distinction there. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #153

Oh, Justin..your devotion to host duty is admirable..truly skepticscott Apr 2015 #35

As host I must think of the people who post in there. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #37

Except that my OP was not personal skepticscott Apr 2015 #45

The better question is why after being warned not to post in the room did you feel the need to hrmjustin Apr 2015 #48

I explained that..did you not read that part? skepticscott Apr 2015 #52

I have already told you why it was locked. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #56

And your "explanation" failed to hold water, justin skepticscott Apr 2015 #58

Nice try Scott. A for effort. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #59

You seem to be at a loss for answers, justin skepticscott Apr 2015 #62

RESPECT MY AUTHORITAH! AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #100

A tyrant in word and action. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #109

Justin is a tyrant okasha Apr 2015 #120

It is hilarious. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #123

"...in Interfaith where it can be discussed without distraction." cleanhippie Apr 2015 #21

Or: Post it there so that skepticscott Apr 2015 #25

How's that "discussion" going, okasha? skepticscott Apr 2015 #114

ECHO Echo echo.......echo AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #135

At their own peril, sir. Goblinmonger Apr 2015 #7

Rather, the nuns were reminded skepticscott Apr 2015 #9

Oops. beam me up scottie Apr 2015 #24

They don't even want it there.. skepticscott Apr 2015 #26

Looks like they reposted it because...cooties. beam me up scottie Apr 2015 #28

Yes, the version they reposted skepticscott Apr 2015 #30

You were asked by the hosts not to post in there. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #31

What was it about this post that you found offensive? skepticscott Apr 2015 #36

Nothing. You personally were told not to post there because of your anti-religious views. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #38

Then have the guts to block Scott if you don't want 'em posting there. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #40

Really? You are really daring me to ban another member? hrmjustin Apr 2015 #42

Daring you? Lol. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #46

Seems like it to me. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #49

It sure sounded like he was skepticscott Apr 2015 #51

I we ban you it will be for your post not because what he says. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #53

Admirable, justin...admirable skepticscott Apr 2015 #55

Are you going to post in there? hrmjustin Apr 2015 #57

Answer the question skepticscott Apr 2015 #60

I answered that. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #61

No, you didn't..you tried to deflect with another question. skepticscott Apr 2015 #63

Ok to be clear. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #65

What you've clarified skepticscott Apr 2015 #66

You will be informed. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #70

I expect you'll have to decide skepticscott Apr 2015 #76

I am sorry but I don't buy your trying to be helpful routine. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #78

You're free to call me a liar, justin skepticscott Apr 2015 #84

The Mets are behind the yanks so you are more interesting tonight. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #86

Do it. Smite him! PassingFair Apr 2015 #131

I don't have the power to smite. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #134

In other words, you're banning me because of my opinions expressed elsewhere skepticscott Apr 2015 #47

I did not ban you. You have been hostile to believers and as host of the room I must think of the hrmjustin Apr 2015 #50

Ah, so you're not "banning" me skepticscott Apr 2015 #54

Well, I went there and gave it a REC anyway! edgineered Apr 2015 #101

Thanks! Looks like the "approved" version skepticscott Apr 2015 #105

Sometimes I just don't know whether to watch golf or edgineered Apr 2015 #107

Well, you know what they say about trees falling in the woods skepticscott Apr 2015 #111

I'm not sure about the falling trees having no consequence, edgineered Apr 2015 #119

Same difference. Just one is without any justification, explanation, or transparency. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #85

DOUBLE SECRET PROBATION BAN. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #132

I am waiting back to hear from all hosts. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #133

That's cheap shit for a mod. ban people or don't. 'you were asked not to post there' is a cop out. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #77

Thanks for your vote of confidence. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #79

It was well earned. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #81

I maybe despicable as your friend says but at least I volunteer. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #83

volunteer to fake ban people without justification for your amusement. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #88

That is a lie and a cheap shot. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #89

No, we know what you tolerate. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #91

You can think what you want. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #92

Whether or not you "lie," okasha Apr 2015 #102

Its the precise same representation, and YOU are thr one that tried to bend the truth AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #103

Go right ahead and link it, AC. okasha Apr 2015 #104

You're the one that started in with claims of misrepresentation. You link it. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #106

Two things. okasha Apr 2015 #121

There was not a single untrue allegation. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #126

I'm on my own phone right now. Get over it. okasha Apr 2015 #128

I am over it. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #129

Come down off your cross, Justin. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #110

. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #116

Yes, that's the reaction most give when reading your posts. cleanhippie Apr 2015 #117

Really? Most people treat me with respect here. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #122

Odd. Respect is earned. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #140

Funny how most treat me a hell of a lot better than you or your friends do. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #142

There is a possibile correlation, that is true. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #143

This is why no one takes you seriously. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #136

I think I made clear that all the hosts have not responded to the head host yet. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #138

You've been doing this shit for MONTHS. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #139

who is a victim? hrmjustin Apr 2015 #141

The person you asked to leave. You kept the poster who couldnt modulate behavior AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #144

Huh? hrmjustin Apr 2015 #145

Yeah, play stupid. right. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #146

Do me a favor and send me a pm about what the hell you are talking about. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #147

A PM is not necessary. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #155

"Herp derp?" okasha Apr 2015 #148

Well at least something good came out of this subthread. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #149

Just for the record, okasha Apr 2015 #150

Yeah still waiting to hear what he means. hrmjustin Apr 2015 #151

It's funny. All your pals seem to be able to navigate Urban Dictionary. AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #154

The lead host for Interfaith is Kentauros. okasha Apr 2015 #125

"Thanks" AtheistCrusader Apr 2015 #127

Good news, AuntPatsy Apr 2015 #27

Agree. I hope more people will stand with them. cbayer Apr 2015 #29

Lots of people are standing with them, cbayer skepticscott Apr 2015 #32

My aunt if she were in better health would be absolutely estatic...;) AuntPatsy Apr 2015 #33

Is she a nun? Supporter of the nuns? cbayer Apr 2015 #34

She is a Nun, one of the smartest, funniest, sweetest woman I know;) AuntPatsy Apr 2015 #72

She sounds wonderful. I bet she has a lot in common with these nuns. cbayer Apr 2015 #94

Catholics who don't agree with Catholicism... MellowDem Apr 2015 #130
