"demonization" of the church?

Ironic phrasing, given the Catholic Church wants authority to decide what is demonic while acting like demons. Why is the comment so plainly aggrieved? Is the Catholic Church a victim here?

Even as your sanitized claim, where is the evidence?

It doesn't exist.

I'm not a Catholic (nor religious at all), and do question whether schools truly are worse than churches in terms of how children are treated.

But that's not the point. You made up a quote I didn't say ("demonization"), and accused the former poster of doing something they weren't: defending the church.

Saying that schools are worse yet ignored is not defending the church. It may also be incorrect, but that's a separate assertion.

That was in the comment that started this chain. Are you using an alt? I'm not sure why this is so hard for you to follow. If I were you I would take a breath and read the chain again.

Here I'll help you:

> Just about every kid goes to school though, so people just prefer to sweep that under the rug and focus on targeting organizations they are not a part of or disagree with because they're easier to demonize and make fun of.

In what world is that useful to your sanitized claim? Is it not an obviously underhanded apology for the conduct of the church? Is the aggrieved nature of this really lost on you?

Buddy, you are fighting windmills. You should go lie down.
