A randomly-selected Jury of DU members completed their review of this alert at Mon Apr 8, 2013, 10:40 AM, and voted 4-2 to HIDE IT.

Juror #1 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to HIDE IT and said: A personal attack combined with an implicit defense of homophobia. At least that is what I gather from the context.
Juror #4 voted to HIDE IT and said: No explanation given
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT and said: skepticscott is not insulting other DU'ers, he's actually being sarcastically factual about the RCC's views on homosexuality. When it comes to homosexuality, the RCC is bigoted... as are SOME roman catholics.
Juror #6 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE and said: not seeing what alerter is seeing
