And I'm with RA Cooper on this one that the more EE-BO tries to justify what he's claimed, he just comes off as anti-Catholic.

I don't think anyone is minimizing the recently child abuse cases, which seems to be what EE-BO is pretending. It just doesn't actually prove what he claimed about history.

Precisely I'm familiar with the recent cases but I'm not actually sure what EE-BO is alleging/claiming or what he's using to back it up. Or whether this was systemic within the Church or more isolated incidents of clergy abusing power.

Turning around and trying to justify one's claims by asking someone if they deny the cruelty of the Inquisition (something pointed more within the Church membership than outside of it) is changing the subject. I'm actually quite interested in reading "a decade's worth of research" (or whatever) if perhaps he could give me a few sources to start from.

Same here - I find Church history and politics actually very interesting so I'd love to delve into this "decade's worth of research" that covers bits I seemed to have missed.
