The myth of moral equivalence [View all] marylandblue Sep 2018 OP
And where are these attempts at excusing criminal behavior? guillaumeb Sep 2018 #1
I did not say anything was excusable or that there was any attempt at excusing behavior marylandblue Sep 2018 #2
No, it is implicitly excusing by claiming that everyone does it. guillaumeb Sep 2018 #4
I will give you the examples, but I am not sure how to take your answer marylandblue Sep 2018 #10

I criticized the sexual predation, guillaumeb Sep 2018 #23
No there are other things that make the RCC stand out marylandblue Sep 2018 #24
What you are doing is pointing out that abuse and coverup has happened elsewhere, trotsky Sep 2018 #32
What you did was demonstrate that you misunderstood what I wrote, and have written. guillaumeb Sep 2018 #41
Bullshit. trotsky Sep 2018 #45
No, you are obviously intelligent, guillaumeb Sep 2018 #47
