I take back the "pathetic" as an adjective for "troll," as Ben has successfully jacked another thread. Amazing, since he was so obvious about it.

Let's get back to discussing the immorality of priests.

it's because discussing political polls is ACTUALLY more interesting than another Asher RCC bashing thread, which is kind of old news now.

Bashing Catholics is a time-honored tradition since the days of Martin Luther!

[Hoglaunccoolf]

The voter model is pretty much the only place you really get to lean on the scale in modern polling, so it's not saying much to claim that this is the only place they differ.

Is it coincidence that the pollster paid by Fox News is at the right end of pollsters while some outfit called Democracy Corps is at the other? I report, you decide...

They have an economic incentive to play to their crowd while not reporting that 96% of Americans thirst for the blood of the socialist Muslim traitor Obama.

That is because Anti-Catholicism is the last acceptable prejudice

[sXVUOUVC]

Actually, there are a number of acceptable prejudices, they just depend on one's immediate surroundings. There are places where you can hate gays, the urban poor, Republicans, Mexicans, Muslims, everyone even vaguely associated with the federal government, immigrants in general and people who don't drive hybrids, for example. Not all in one place, but in our hyper-partisan society it's only really universally unacceptable to hate black people and women. Oh, and Jews, of course.

XPost As usual, Catholics have a persecution complex.

Yep, Rasmussen is skewed to the right.

[tearidrusydet]

Barnabas, if you think there's anti-catholic prejudice now, you should check out what it was like a century ago...

There are many 'code words' for Black, you know. Urban poor is one of them.

More of a subset, really. I'm sure people who dislike the Urban Poor are fine with Bill Cosby and the half-dozen black Republicans. And the term also includes sundry Latinos and people of suspicious Muslim ancestry. Probably a few Chinese immigrants as well.

This thread is another example of how celibacy among Catholic clergy is working so well.

[rouletteroulette]

actually, growing up as a catholic I always found this one of the more strange aspects of the religion. It made no sense then and still doesn't.

Considering that it isn't a Catholic thing but is rather a Latin Rite thing.

Unfortunately for you, everyone is a citizen and everyone matters regardless if they vote. Approval ratings are not done just for people who vote for a reason.

Unfortunately for you, everyone is a citizen and everyone matters regardless if they vote. Approval ratings are not done just for people who vote for a reason. Why? People who choose not to vote get no say in the system.

I thought the lesson here was that gays make for poor priests.
