    My church is not the SBC. And, yes, the SBC is fairly new on the scene. Are you actually going somewhere with this drivel, besides spewing forth even more ignorance in an apparent attempt to excuse your prior ignorance?

    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      I am simply pointing out that the universal [I refrained from using the word catholic in case you suddenly came over faint] Christian church to which presumably the SBC belongs has a long history of sexual abuse and covering up such scandals.

        What is it with you and this idiocy thinking somebody's gonna faint over you saying something stupid -- I know full well what catholic as opposed to Catholic is, you twit.

        Except that, as soon as the membership of the SBC discovered there was a problem, we owned it and acted to deal with it. You referred specifically to the SBC, and we have obviously handled this differently than the Catholic Church, or any other denomination.

          The Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church is considered by some Protestants to be the whore of Babylon or a cult [among various other pejorative epithets] and I would not like to overly distress you.

          Excepting that it took the rest of the membership quite a few years to discover there actually was a problem and the extent of the cover-up.

          As I noted earlier, Acton was right "Power tends to corrupt".

            And, once again, crazy German cat lady thinks she has the power to "overly distress" me. Yeah, I'm feeling the vapors!

            Yes, because we're not a top-down organization, and most of us are busy in our own FULLY AUTONOMOUS churches. It was quite an eye-opening experience.

            As I noted earlier, Acton was right "Power tends to corrupt".
            Well, maybe at the next annual meeting I'll notify them that the crazy German cat lady approves our action.

              I cannot comment from experience but I do not think one feels the vapours, I think one experiences them, but you would know more about that than I do.

              Have these leaders been removed?

              Perhaps just read Lord Acton's wise words to them - with his additional observation that "absolute power corrupts absolutely".

                It amazes me how flatulently ignorant you are of what Americans know or do not know.

                        You'd have to ask somebody who has power over your own jurisdiction.

                                The fact that you hide behind your own ing just shows what a worthless little you are.
