    For decades the Catholic Church failed to punish the guilty - FACT.

    Clerics accused of sexually abusing children were put in positions where they continued to have access to children - FACT.

    The hierarchy in Rome still denies culpability - FACT.

    Quibbling about percentages is, IMHO, appalling behaviour.

    One was too many. :mad:

    ISAW is indoctrinated and feels an obligation to deny reality - FACT.

    I've explained to you perhaps five, perhaps ten, maybe fifteen times, publicly and via PM about this figure. If you find yourself still unable to understand it, then the problem is entirely yours.

    you made a claim about 6.5% of offenders being priests and then you lowered oit to 4%
    Both claims were false!
    I under the stats very well!
    You mis reported 4% of victims as 4% of offenders as i see it.

    catholic priests were never 4% of offenders and you know that and you wrongly claimed it but you cant admit it.
    With respect to this thread, you said that "Roman Catholics didn't vote for Hitler". I have pointed out that Catholics were the crucial voting bloc which provided Hitler with dictatorial powers.

    And i posted the actual stats
    Here are some charts
    http://www.churchinhistory.org/images/hitler-rise/map3&4.jpg
    http://www.churchinhistory.org/images/hitler-rise/map5&6.jpg

    They clearly show how Catholic areas voted.
    You are free to stick your fingers in your ears, go "la, la, la", waffle interminably about a wide range of irrelevant topics, produce pages of random numbers, and deny the basic facts of history if you wish.

    You are the "la la " person! You claimed
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=77696548&postcount=839
    177 priests ... 6.3% of the diocese
    i pointed out http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showpost.php?p=77699611&postcount=842

    of the 177 some were abusers of adults etc. the ones who were possible child sex abusers were 102. the is no reason to assume half the 11 were within remit.

    And how does 102 allegations become "convicted of child abuse, or who had credible allegations" apparently your standard of "credible" is "anonymous"!

    Eventually in 1.13 you discover "Of the 34 priests from the Dublin Archdiocese, ten are dead, 20 are out of ministry and four are in ministry."

    we can only say 11 were convicted but assume all 34 are "credible" 34:2800 = 1.2%
    not 6.3%
    The report itself says this figure in 1.13 and mentions 11 convictions not 34.

    you also claimed the Irish catholic newspaper stated
    that 4% of convicted pedophiles in Irish prisons were clerics.

    Misreported by you
    It actually says
    Quote:
    Given that clergy account for approximately 4% of abuse, Irish society has a long way to go to rooting out this evil in our midst.

    which means 4% of victims are victims of clergy and NOT that 4%of abusers are clergy as you claimed!
    BTW, on a mod note, would you mind using a spell checker on some or all of your posts?
    Fair enough. I also have a keypad problem as it jumps to azerty sometimes.
    On an academic integrity note would you mind actually doing a statistics check on the demographics of Germany in the 1930 and on the actual reported percentage of pedophile offenders who are clergy and not what you actually think the stats are?

    I posted the actual percentage of Protestant catholic and mixed areas and how they voted so dont blame me if you don't understand them.

    Try looking at the pictures I posted. Notice any correlations?
    Catholics didn't vote for Hitler!
    the roman church didn't support Hitler!
    Successive popes openly opposed Hitler as did German bishops.

    Your fingers are in your ears and when you make unsupported claims that are demolished you resort to complaining about the way i post and not the actual content.

    Try dealing with the actual facts please.

    I rarely f ever mention my personal beliefs. I deal in facts. I also rarely make claims. I dal in asking others toi support their claims and providing counter evidence to their claims.

    this isnt about Biblical fundamentalism. It is about claims like
    1. certain percentages of pedophiles being Priests e.g 4% or 6.45%
    (both of which are unsupported)
    2. that Catholics in Germany and the church supported Hitler
    they didn't!

    Robindch has gone over this numerous times, you keep choosing to either ignore it, or you don't understand it. Either way, let it go now, it's not even funny anymore.
    ISAW wrote: »

    Yes they did. Maybe not all of them, but a very large amount of Catholics in Germany did support Hitler, there is no point in denying this, it is a historical fact.
    The Pope, and high ranking members of the Vatican also supported Hitler, but quickly withdrew their public support once they'd realised how much of a danger he was.

    These are the facts of History. This is not a conspiracy. This is not twisting the past. These are the established historical facts from people alive at the time, and oh so much more.

    Now, go back and read my last post on this thread a few pages back. This is my lost post to you on this matter. It's ridiculous how blinded you've become.

    show me once wher he produced support for the claim he made?
    Just one instance of any reporting saying 6.5% of child sex offenders are priests?
    even a report on non convicted levels of abuse?
    i dont think accusing priests of being child abusers is a joke .
    And i dont think standing up for made up statistics about it is a joke
    Yes they did. Maybe not all of them, but a very large amount of Catholics in Germany did support Hitler, there is no point in denying this, it is a historical fact.

    LOL! Because you say so?
    Just like robin said 6.5% of offenders were priests?

    I have posted the actual election counts from the 1930s.
    You can clearly see the Catholic areas were not Nazi voters and the non Catholics areas were.
    the is also evidence the lapsed Catholics or those who believed the mesage of the Nazis and didnt trust their own bishops or Pope were the ones voting Nazi. But by and large Catholics didnt vote Nazi. Not alone is it a historical fact because i say it it her here in picture form
    http://www.churchinhistory.org/images/hitler-rise/map3&4.jpg
    http://www.churchinhistory.org/images/hitler-rise/map5&6.jpg

    historical fact! not a claim of one and actually established and well supported one!
    The Pope, and high ranking members of the Vatican also supported Hitler, but quickly withdrew their public support once they'd realised how much of a danger he was.

    rubbish! Two popes were in power when Hitler rose to take over germany
    Both opposed Naziism!

    Where is your evidence the Vatican supported Hitler and then suddenly began opposing him?
    These are the facts of History. This is not a conspiracy. This is not twisting the past. These are the established historical facts from people alive at the time, and oh so much more.

    so you should not have any problems producing the historical artefacts and statistics and doccumented facts supporting your claim -*rather than just you "this is the truth" unsupported claim?
    Now, go back and read my last post on this thread a few pages back. This is my lost post to you on this matter. It's ridiculous how blinded you've become.

    why dont you actually produce some of these so called "facts" instead of claiming them?
    and why cant you supply a reference to your own messages?

    You cant even do that and you have the gall to dictate you know it all? Like the titanic you are in danger of sinking in your own hubris.

    I can't say anything about JC, but if you want to get rid of me, you must understand the philosophy of jackal..
    You can't break a man the way you break a dog...or a horse. The harder you beat a man, the taller he stands. To break a man's will, to break his spirit, you have to break his mind. Men have this idea that we can fight with dignity, that it's the proper way to kill someone; it's absurd (illogical), it's anaesthetic (painkilling). We needed to endure (suffer) the bloody horror of murder. You must destroy that idea. Show them what a messy, terrible thing it is to kill a man... and then show them that you relish(enjoy) in it. Shoot the wounded, then execute the wounded; burn them. Take them in close combat, destroy their preconceptions(fixed ideas) of what a man is, and you become their personal monster. When they fear you... you become stronger, you become better. But let's never forget, it's a display, it's a posture(stanace), like a lion's roar or a gorilla thumping at his chest. If you lose yourself with display, if you succumb(surrender) to the horror... then you become the monster. You become reduced. Not more than a man, but less; and it can be fatal.

    Yes and catholic regions didn't vote for Hitler
    See here:

    and here
    http://www.churchinhistory.org/images/hitler-rise/map5&6.jpg
    Martin Luther who wrote a book called On the Jews and Their Lies

    which has nothing to do with roman Catholic antisemitism but in any case hads nothing to do with linking Luther to Naziism since they didnt appear till over 400 years later.

    which instructed christians on what larcenous and murderous policies they should adopt towards jews - policies that were broadly implemented and extended by the Nazi's once Hitler had assumed dictatorial power with the necessary support of the catholic priest Ludwig Kaas and his catholic Center Party (which I mentioned recently and you appear to have forgotten about).
    i wont go into other things you seem to have forgotten about.
    I pointed out to you in detail how the roamn catholic church doint support Hitler.
    you seem to have forgotten the actual vote.

    Chapter IV
    HITLER'S RISE TO POWER
    By
    Dennis Barton
    Papen proposed that the Centre should form a coalition with the Nazis and Nationalists as this would provide an administration with a parliamentary majority. Bruning replied on behalf of the Centre that he would never sit at the same table as the Nazis
    Kaas, the Centre party chairman, begged Papen not to become Chancellor.He added that if he went ahead he would incur the hate and enmity of his own party ((FVP 157)). So when Papen, in June 1932, became Chancellor, the Centre MPs unanimously deplored what he had done. Papen tried to keep the friendship of the Centre but had to admit that there was no hope of reconciliation ((FVP 151)). In September 1932 the Centre joined other parties in passing a vote of 'no confidence' in Papen's government ((FVP 209)). Some authors state that the Vatican was pleased when Papen replaced Bruning. There is no evidence for this. The accusation is based on an uncritical acceptance of Communist propaganda...
    It was on the 5th of March 1933 that Papen for the first time became an MP in the Reichstag and it was as a Nationalist, not a Centre Party member. As Papen was not a member of the Nazi party, he was not excommunicated by the Church. During the March election he had warned that pride of race 'must never develop into hatred of other races' and 'there was no need to found a new religion to bolster the German race' ((FVP 268)). In August 1932 a German delegate to the Jewish World Congress in Geneva had praised the Von Papen government's attitude towards the Jews ((FVP 285)). Papen soon became disillusioned with the way things were going.

    On the 17th June 1934 at Marlburg University, while still vice-Chancellor, he publicly denounced Nazi attacks on free speech, the law, human rights, a free press, personal liberty and the churches. He said that the country had to choose between Christianity or Nazism ((FVP 309)). He condemned the reign of terror and warned the Nazis not to confuse virility with brutality. He declared that the one-party state was acceptable only as a transition stage on the way to an authoritarian but democratic state based on Christian principles ((FVP 307-9)). Although publication of the speech was banned in Germany, copies were spread secretly, and reported abroad ((KCA 8230)).

    Next day he handed in his cabinet resignation, but Hitler persuaded him to wait until an investigation had been made to discover who had banned his speech being reported.

    Two weeks later, Hitler had all those likely to lead any attempt to overthrow him, murdered. These included Erich Klausener, the leader of Catholic Action, who had helped to draft Papen's speech ((WLS 218 and 223)), Fritz Gerlich, a Catholic editor, and Adalbert Probst, a well-known national Catholic Youth leader ((KG 61)). One of Papen's private secretaries was killed and two others sent to concentration camps.

    As for Kaas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_Kaas#Kaas_as_party_chairman
    From 1930 onwards, Kaas loyally supported the administration under the Centre's Heinrich Brüning.
