Yes, agreed absolutely. The suggestion of a personal agenda other than simply the rightness of charging anyone who abused children is missing the point.Actually,thinking about it, I don't think its necessary to admit to any agenda to bring someone to trial for raping children (or killing and maiming) ... the agenda Robertson and Dawkins have is irrelevant, it is enough that this sort of crime be prosecuted.
Oh, I don't know. You have certainly provided many of us with much amusement. Not to mention the perfectly logical points you've made.You think anarchy... is far RIGHT.
...
You're taking the piss now, aren't you? I'm being trolled. Christ, my word count is going towards your score at Something Awful or 4Chan, isn't it?
God, you really had me going there, but you just went too far at the end. I should have seen it right from "Hitler is a lefty atheist". Athiest is bad, but lefty too? Nah, I'm an idiot to have fallen for it. No-one sucked up cold-war anti-commie propaganda to the extent you've pretended to. "Freedom is right wing". Hahahaha! I'll have to use that one in my sig.
/sigh
I'd better go do some work. Coming onto forums and being troll-food is clearly not my talent.
Yes. The power of the Catholic Church is immense, along with the influence bought by their considerable wealth.Maybe the political will does not exist to arrest the Pope? Hence private individuals take up the challenge.
Stats of pedophiles, shows it is greater % wise in the greater community than in the Catholic church.
Could that be because the Catholic Church has been hiding its pedophiles and demanding silence of their victims for decades so stats related to it are of course going to be very much understated?

Catholic church is decentralized and centralized. One of the biggest and wealthiest institutes ... yes ... provides help to all countries ... yes.
I have been on the front line of the help it provides, if you have not or been a receiver then perhaps you may have doubts.
Same goes for the Salvation Army.
The Catholic church will even fund and create orphanages in Muslim countries, with no reference to Christianity through any related books or related teaching.
This whole attack on Catholic, is pathetic. No ads on TV, no hard sell, no brain washing. Should we appear more susceptible ?
Yep good post. My daughter and her friend spent the morning volunteering at the Sacred Heart Mission which was through the Church, feeding more than 450 homeless people.
What has Dawkins done for Humanity, apart from attack the Pope and write books.
Even a basic google search would have turned up http://richarddawkinsfoundation.org/ a charitable foundation that provides aid to those in need.

Aaah well there you go - hope you're all giving your donations
All people are born instinctively good and remain so with nurture. However we are all different and that is where it breaks down. We need to tolerate all sides and try to encourage the good.

Yeah? It's far from uncommon for a parent to be the abuser.Sorry, missed the most important group, parents ... which are ahead of police and principle.
ALL people are born instinctively good?? Read about biological psychopaths.
Biological faults can be identified and corrected with the proper treatment and care = nurture. The nature of the biological fault cannot be changed but the behaviour within the social context can be changed. Religion has done it in the past with subconscious imprinting through repitition, ie the chant in the Rosary.
And again Atlas, this has nothing to do with the misdeads of the Papacy

During the Iran / Iraq war, Iranians sent their kids barefoot off ahead of the soldiers to search for mines. With their feet.
Has any authority from Iran ever visited the UK? If so, has Dawkins ever tried to "arrest" them?
Don't seem to recall it.
