[Vision2020] Richard Dawkins calls for arrest of PopeBenedictXVI

[the lockshop]

You are attempting to change the parameters of the discussion and attempting to hold me accountable for a position I do not hold and haven't espoused. (a rather common tactic on your part) I agree that sitler is a slime ball and got off light. I was simply disputing  fox's assertion that CC "shields and enables child molesters." Everything I have read indicates that as soon as Kirk hierarchy became aware of sitler's misdeeds they saw to it  that it was reported to the proper authorities. If you or fox have actual evidence that this is incorrect, please present it. Speculations,  innuendo, and outright fantasy are not evidence.
