I guess you guys would do just wonderful under the same public scrutiny. Otherwise you wouldn't be criticizing him.

As usual, Oz, your reasoning isn't.

What exactly do you want me to say?
What? I suppose I recall you walking out of a church because you disapproved of it. I don't recall you defending it as the preacher and the doctrines you disapproved of were 'under stress'. You had done with it.

But here you are excusing. It's not so much what we want you to say but what you should want you to say.

"I can no longer defend indefensible hypocrisy".

But I reckon you can't. It's the first step on the slippery slope to irreligion. And I sympathise with you not being able even to consider it.

You have to admit Trouts, he's good at playing the 'I am too saintly to judge others (doesn't stop him swiping at us ) card and making us the persecutors o the martyred innocent.

There a scene in Tartuffe, after he tried to seduce the wife, is exposed, and the husband furiously berates the family for persecuting the saintly man in such a way.

Truth to tell, I don't know what. I thought it was just hands in the till. Anyone want to link to the dirt? I might start to like the guy.....

no ozzy that is not what we are saying.

we are saying why do theist stand behind him even though he is clearly not on the same page?

the notion that "just let us be, we have the same goal anyway." Or "don't slow us down, we are trying to help."

fits with this guy as much as it fits with anti-godfaith for social change.

Why are you defending him?

Correct. That happened before my conversion. Because I didn't understand the saving message of love in what I heard was condemnation at the time.

As for the rest of your post, I have no clue what you are trying to say.

I would stand behind anyone if people want to amplify his sins simply because he represents faith, allegedly.

If this were anyone else without as association to Christianity, not one of you would even care.
That's hypocrisy. That's a joke.

So I have no reason to take any of you seriously.

I would like you to say bad parents are a far bigger problem than bad religion and bigger problem than anti-godfaith for social change.. His "broken father" broke his kid. And the cycle continues.

But thats just me trying to see where the real problem is.
