He said he was raised catholic until the age of 10, as the intro to the video. Did you even watch the video? Or, are you so hung up on jews that you just assume anyone who doesn't like the catholic church is a secret jew?

Nice dodge by accusation,Bill Maher is one example of a Catholic raised Jew.
But still what does a guy who find that video funny would know.That video is close to hate speech.

"Catholic raised Jew?" Nice to know we have track who is a secret jew and who isn't.

Hate speech is much better than an institution that has enabled and covered up for systemic child molestation. And it's closer to the truth than I'm sure you're willing to admit.

And before you go accusing Sullivan of being a jew, he's a Catholic.

Glad you admit you find hate speech against Catholicism funny,that was my point.

In the interest of Self-Examination, rhetorical question follows....

People whom are upset/not amused. Is it because....

A) The perceived "attack" on the institution of the Roman Catholic Church?

or

B) The sensitivity of the subject(young boys being sexually abused) matter?

:colbert:

C) Any mention of the systemic child molestation, corruption, and cover ups at the heart of catholic hierarchy and they scream at you for being 'anti-catholic.'

Glad to know that you're more upset about this attack on catholicism than the catholic church's systemic molestation of children :thumbsup:

Unwarranted conclusion,unlike mine.
My point was that is an attack on the CC and you just admitted it.
No sane person approves of the few scumbags who torture children.

It's a warranted attack on an organization that has enabled and protected scumbags who torture children.

SO,it`s an attack and not a "funny" video_OK,we agree.

It can't be both? You haven't heard of mockery or ridicule? Humor can be directed at the expense of others. Sometimes people should be mocked.

The only one here with "trepidations" is you, my friend.

Not only that, preslove who is clearly anticatholic now wants not only to deem himself the arbiter of all truth in this thread, he also expects you not to accept that this tacky and disgusting video is any way funny other than to people like himself.

He also wants to say that antisemitism is worse than anticatholicism, which excludes his "group" from criticism. Its ok to state facts about catholics, but the minute you want to state facts about jews you went to far.

Please. :rolleyes:

And no preslove Im not going to argue with you because all you are going to do is repeat the same pattern: catholics can be criticized but jews cant because you think one group suffers more persecution than the other and therefore gives you the right to act the way you do.

It's not funny because it's unoriginal, lacks creativity, sophomoric, uninspired, and frankly baseless. It's nothing but slander.

btw, I could give a shit about the Catholic church.

Preslove, the argument about him saying he was raised Catholic, as if that means anything or is truthful is meritless, as he also states that so and so is the spokesperson for the Archdiocese when he clearly is not. You can not take him at his word for anything in the video.

Sorry,don`t care about jews or any other group no matter the feeble attempts of preslove to paint me as antisemitic.I just made a weak correlation ,I agree.
My point is that video is a vulgar hate disguised as a funny thing.It`s certainly NOT funy!

Disliking the "church" of catholicism is not the same as hating all catholics. Nice straw man.

Albatrose didn't 'state facts' about jews. He accused a former catholic of being a jew as a to dismiss them.

There is an established history of disgusting abuse within the catholic church that stretches back centuries. Maybe instead of spewing idiotic blather, you should try reading a book about it: http://www.amazon.com/Sex-Priests-Se...3075888&sr=8-1

As I predicted it was pointless to argue with you because you were just going to repeat yourself. You are the kind of person who will never find fault with himself or his arguments. And if that makes me antipreslove than so be it because its the truth. Why dont I make a video about the faults of preslove? Im sure if I did enough searching it would be a good one and Im sure you would have a good laugh.

All groups also have an established history of disgusting things, including jews but you chose today to be anticatholic.

The end.
