And I didn't even try calling you racist for not liking the movie! See how that's done.

ETA: In case you only understanding of that phrase is from your wonderful Urban Dictionary, here's the clip from the movie

You left out a word. rug Feb 2016 #30
Did I? AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #31
Yes, you did, as you did in post 11, "Namaste, motherfucker." rug Feb 2016 #38
I said 'unknown to me'. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #41
No. You said "Unknown." rug Feb 2016 #42

It's a complusion. cleanhippie Feb 2016 #19
your compulsion must be snarking behind someone else. rug Feb 2016 #23
Don't you have a 40 day radio silence compulsion coming up? AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #33
Why don't you clarify that? rug Feb 2016 #36
Same thing you did last year. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #37
I did lots of things last year. Why don't you clarify yourself. rug Feb 2016 #39
Very funny. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #40
For someone who likes to throw arond the word "motherfucker", you're curiously reticent. rug Feb 2016 #43
I already made my point. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #45
No, you didn't. rug Feb 2016 #46
Um, no. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #47
Um, bullshit. rug Feb 2016 #48
Apparently I am not the only one with issues around crude language. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #49
Saying what you wrote is "bullshit" is hardly addressing you as "motherfuucker". rug Feb 2016 #50
You seem confused. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #51
"seem" is such a weasl word. rug Feb 2016 #55
Well, I can't know for sure if you're being deceptive, rather than confused. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #62
Namaste . . . . rug Feb 2016 #64
Namaste. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #72
"seem" is such a weasl word. AlbertCat Feb 2016 #67
You hit the nail on the head here Lordquinton Feb 2016 #18
Bwah ha ha ha! trotsky Feb 2016 #7
The fundamental (no pun intended) difference is glossed over Lordquinton Feb 2016 #10
What do anti-theist bigots use as a screen? rug Feb 2016 #13
Calling the RCC a "pedophile institution" Leontius Feb 2016 #25
Because it is in fact a mask to religious bigotry. rug Feb 2016 #28
How is it not? You should go see spotlight. Warren Stupidity Feb 2016 #32
And that's the difference. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #35
I don't see public schools shuffling around teachers to new districts and hiding their past AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #34
He wasn't talking about public schools Lordquinton Feb 2016 #52
Thank you, I totally missed that. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #53
Yep, the mask slipped Lordquinton Feb 2016 #54
I'm sure you did miss it. Leontius Feb 2016 #65
That wasn't the original problem. The comment was about the organization HARBORING them, shuffling AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #71
My original comment was about the abuse not the coverup if you are confused about that Leontius Feb 2016 #76
You said "the RCC". Not 'some priests that abused children.'. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #78
We have no disagrement about the problem of the cover-up. Leontius Feb 2016 #80
It has the apperance of impropriety from multiple levels. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #82
Do you think that the purpose of the Church was to enable? Leontius Feb 2016 #83
For the purposes of this question AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #85
So your answer is yes they moved these priests with the express intent to allow them to Leontius Feb 2016 #86
For some levels of the org, yes, it has that appearance. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #87
Quit weaseling, just answer Leontius Feb 2016 #89
It's not weaseling to acknowledge I do not know for certain. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #133
Bullshit Leontius Feb 2016 #134
That's rich coming from you Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #136
Yes I do and you have shown nothing to refute anything I said. Leontius Feb 2016 #139
You realize everyone can still see post 25 right? AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #143
Do you deny that there are sexual predators among Leontius Feb 2016 #146
Has the teachers union hidden and moved and ENABLED said predators, like the RCC has? AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #147
That was never my argument and I'm sure that if you really want to find an answer to your Leontius Feb 2016 #151
You said, in post 25, "THE RCC", not 'abusive priests'. You compared the actions of individual teach AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #154
I said appearance. Because it does. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #141
Again with insinuation and innuendo. Leontius Feb 2016 #144
They were deliberate acts, and frankly its probably due to indifference to children which has been.. Humanist_Activist Feb 2016 #150
Thanks for a direct and honest answer something that others seem unable to do. Leontius Feb 2016 #156
You are remarkably inconsistent. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #157
The issue is that, because religious organizations perpetuate this, and religion is given a... Humanist_Activist Feb 2016 #161
I don't know what your interest in my balls is, but they have nothing to do with this conversation. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #152
What a complete coward. Leontius Feb 2016 #153
If you say so. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #155
Well you could learn a great deal from Humanist Activist Leontius Feb 2016 #159
If you look carefully, there is little difference between what HA and I said. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #160
I only mentioned them because it was part of my argument that the motives was indifference... Humanist_Activist Feb 2016 #166
Your presence is required in this thread about the vatican saying it doesn't have to report. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #73
I remember hearing something about "mandatory reporter" Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #75
Next we'll learn how the Teamsters Unions are the SAME THING as vatican Rat Lines evacuating AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #77
Because that's all in your imagination? truebrit71 Feb 2016 #56
Did you seriously just say that Teacher Unions shelter pedophiles? Lordquinton Feb 2016 #57
Reading comprehension a big problem for you is it? Leontius Feb 2016 #60
No, I comprehended exactly what you said. Lordquinton Feb 2016 #61
The problem is I didn't make that claim. Leontius Feb 2016 #63
The problem is you made that comparisson Lordquinton Feb 2016 #91
No you conflated my question on abuse into that comparison I'm not taking blame for your Leontius Feb 2016 #95
So not only do you make wild, slanderous accusations while refusing to back them up Lordquinton Feb 2016 #104
I'm quite sure this will be complained about in other groups on DU Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #105
And your misrepresentions of what I said are yours and your friends so I won't hold it Leontius Feb 2016 #106
Its the cover-up and enabling of pedophiles by the Church, by shuffling them to unknowing... Humanist_Activist Feb 2016 #149
Really? Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #58
My Mother is a teacher Lordquinton Feb 2016 #59
So you are saying there is no problem with educators abusing children? Leontius Feb 2016 #68
Hey, just double down on it. That's awesome. Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #70
The problem is I didn't do that. Leontius Feb 2016 #79
Here's the problem I have with what you said. Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #96
I have nothing to appologize for everything I posted was true and backed by studies on this problem. Leontius Feb 2016 #99
Bye, Felicia n/t Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #100
A well reasoned response Leontius Feb 2016 #102
Read above for my well reasoned response Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #103
Only problem with that is the Dept of Education study had almost the same percent of Leontius Feb 2016 #108
Go ahead and post those. Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #111

If you don't like the movie Friday Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #112
Ice Cube movies are well known for respecting women. rug Feb 2016 #116
No. It's not calling someone a bitch Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #128
That's the comon use now. rug Feb 2016 #129
Yeah, I'll take it from you Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #130
Yes you will. As necessary. rug Feb 2016 #131
Confirmation of your answer to me is on display here. Leontius Feb 2016 #113
There's all sorts of privilege on display as well. rug Feb 2016 #117
There certanly is Lordquinton Feb 2016 #122
Hio many of those are yours, "Lord"? rug Feb 2016 #124
How about you? Lordquinton Feb 2016 #138
You're evading. Again. rug Feb 2016 #172
We can dig into the archives and find out who's evading Lordquinton Feb 2016 #175
What's your privilege, "Lord"? rug Feb 2016 #176
Evading now? Lordquinton Feb 2016 #177
What's your privilege, "Lord"? rug Feb 2016 #178
You have a past due question "Rug" Lordquinton Feb 2016 #179
What is wrong with you, quinton? rug Feb 2016 #180
Nothing Lordquinton Feb 2016 #181
Lol!. Nope not a single thing at all. rug Feb 2016 #182
The question is still lingering "Rug" Lordquinton Feb 2016 #183
Yes there is: What's your privilege, "Lord"? rug Feb 2016 #184
Something else to look up while you're at it Lordquinton Feb 2016 #185
I've known that acronym for years. As has virtually every other member of this site. rug Feb 2016 #186
Do you now? Lordquinton Feb 2016 #187
What's your privilege, "Lord"? rug Feb 2016 #188
But you still can't answer the question Lordquinton Feb 2016 #189
Of course I can, quinton. Most anyone on this board can. rug Feb 2016 #190
So why don't you? Lordquinton Feb 2016 #191
I find your bizarre behavior fascinating. rug Feb 2016 #192
Any time you accuse someone of dodging a question Lordquinton Feb 2016 #193
What's your privilege, "Lord"? rug Feb 2016 #194
We as in the many people here who ask you questions you run away from Lordquinton Feb 2016 #195
What's your privilege "Lord"? rug Feb 2016 #196
Stop evading Lordquinton Feb 2016 #197
Listen, "Lord", you should count your blessings I'm wasting this amount of time with you at all. rug Feb 2016 #198
Deflection after deflection Lordquinton Feb 2016 #199
I think it's page five of the playbook Leontius Feb 2016 #123
Don't forget the use of this: rug Feb 2016 #125
That one mostly comes with a distinct smell though. Leontius Feb 2016 #127
You've got most of those for sure Lordquinton Feb 2016 #137
WTF are you rambling on about now? Leontius Feb 2016 #140
And you were accusing me of poor reading comprehension Lordquinton Feb 2016 #162
In case you missed it I supplied three sources Leontius Feb 2016 #164
I missed those links in this thread Goblinmonger Feb 2016 #173
Did the teachers union say it's not sure it has to report it? AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #74
Does the name Matthew Lang of Illinois ring any bells for you? Leontius Feb 2016 #84
As others have noted, you've drawn a false equivalence here. LiberalAndProud Feb 2016 #66
Because it's absurd. Teachers' "massive child sexual abuse problem"? Are you being serious? mr blur Feb 2016 #69
You don't think that a possible 4.5 million instances of abuse is massive. Leontius Feb 2016 #81
Link, please. nt Curmudgeoness Feb 2016 #88
You don't know how to do an internet search. Leontius Feb 2016 #90
Your claim Lordquinton Feb 2016 #92
I already did my search if you want the facts do yours. Leontius Feb 2016 #94
OK, just searched and found nothing Lordquinton Feb 2016 #107
This message was self-deleted by its author Leontius Feb 2016 #109
Nope. Curmudgeoness Feb 2016 #93
Enjoy your ignorance Leontius Feb 2016 #97
As a former teacher, Curmudgeoness Feb 2016 #98
Take it up with the AAUW it's their estimate not mine. Leontius Feb 2016 #101
I suspect your numbers are conjecture, or your "research" is suspect. LiberalAndProud Feb 2016 #114
I absolutely agree that the RCC has failed to address this problem correctly. Leontius Feb 2016 #118
I found the article. I read it. The article clearly states that a study has not been LiberalAndProud Feb 2016 #119
All three sources agree on the extent of the problem Leontius Feb 2016 #120
You really think this is somehow equivalent? LiberalAndProud Feb 2016 #121
That's the problem you all seem to have you can't grasp the concept Leontius Feb 2016 #126
The criticism is of the response as much as the abuse itself. LiberalAndProud Feb 2016 #132
No I don't think it is. Leontius Feb 2016 #135
Well there we are, I suppose. Because I do think it is. LiberalAndProud Feb 2016 #142
I'm making no excuses I'm just questioning the motive and honesty of some posters on the issue. Leontius Feb 2016 #148
And yet... AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #158
Why do you continue to make inaccurate statements about what I have said? Leontius Feb 2016 #163
Because I can still see post 25, wherein you specified "the RCC". AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #165
I also specified "child sexual abuse problem" too didn't I Leontius Feb 2016 #167
A not-clever example of sleight of hand. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #168
You are right there is some conflation going on here but it's by you not me. Leontius Feb 2016 #169
Except of course, post 25 stands, for all to see what you actually said. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #170
As does your inability to understand it after repeatedly being corrected and your Leontius Feb 2016 #171
Except it doesn't say what you're backpedaling to say. AtheistCrusader Feb 2016 #174
He often does. What always amuses me Warpy Feb 2016 #26
That's so true. trotsky Feb 2016 #27
Which doesn't explain at all your squealing when Dawkins is critiqued, mostly by atheists. rug Feb 2016 #29
