None of the "many people here in this subthread" you refer to have managed an answer. Can you? It's not hard.

Here, I'll give it to you anyway. I'm in a good mood.

Have at it.

Texas atheist students swap Bibles for porn [View all] rug Apr 2012 OP

I think this movement needs a little diversity. cbayer Apr 2012 #1

If there were a few more women involved, I doubt they'd be swapping for porn rug Apr 2012 #2

Are you talking about the RCC? Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #24

Where, in the African, Asian, or Latin American dioceses? rug Apr 2012 #31

I'm talking about the place of women in the church. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #34

Thye post you replied to mentioned "more women and people of color." rug Apr 2012 #35

No, I'm not Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #37

Other than Hoyos, what is your dissatisfaction with the ethnic and racial diversity of the RCC? rug Apr 2012 #42

That all came out after the selection Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #43

They just get more popular every day. nt humblebum Apr 2012 #54

They do indeed. ;) nt eqfan592 Apr 2012 #55

Indeed they do, and at the expense of religion, too! cleanhippie Apr 2012 #56

Yes, everyone knows religion exploits women and porn doesn't. humblebum Apr 2012 #57

Well, at the very least, religion exploits children... cleanhippie Apr 2012 #100

Hmmm...I think you're missing something. eqfan592 Apr 2012 #102

everyone knows religion exploits women and porn doesn't. AlbertCat Apr 2012 #109

I find this as annoying qazplm Apr 2012 #3

Well, the important thing... Ian David Apr 2012 #6

Saying there are too many dicks is like saying there are too many flowers. Ian David Apr 2012 #12

I find this as annoying as proselytizing by religious folk. AlbertCat Apr 2012 #110

There's no misogyny if it's gay male porn. n/t Ian David Apr 2012 #4

That's true, but probably unlikely. They bought 30 pounds of porn from a single seller cbayer Apr 2012 #16

"They bought 30 pounds of porn from a single seller" Rob H. Apr 2012 #58

Actually it was 140 pounds for $30! cbayer Apr 2012 #61

Man! Rob H. Apr 2012 #62

Maybe it's an estate sale? cbayer Apr 2012 #64

Ha! I can just see it Rob H. Apr 2012 #88

Sounds like a win-win FBaggins Apr 2012 #5

It depends on who their targeted audience is, and what their desired result is. Ian David Apr 2012 #13

Looks like it might be a combination of 1 and 3 cbayer Apr 2012 #46

They're not going to SPREAD Atheism that way. Ian David Apr 2012 #66

What's your church doing to fight against misogyny, rug? trotsky Apr 2012 #11

They stopped burning "witches." n/t Ian David Apr 2012 #14

Gotta love progress! trotsky Apr 2012 #21

What are you doing to fight against misogyny, trotsky? rug Apr 2012 #18

You're right, I do lots more than you and your church. n/t trotsky Apr 2012 #19

I'll take you word for it. rug Apr 2012 #22

Good for them Buzz cook Apr 2012 #15

I believe the swapping of bibles for porn to be a dumb, unfunny and destructive , sophomoric ladjf Apr 2012 #17

I'll believe that you actually care about misogyny beyond your rhetorical convenience darkstar3 Apr 2012 #20

Do you believe I care about your belief? rug Apr 2012 #23

Way to not yet address the hypocrisy of your post. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #25

Ah, so you approve this stunt because the RCC is misogynist. rug Apr 2012 #26

Build your strawmen somewhere else. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #27

This OP is about swapping Bibles for porn. rug Apr 2012 #28

OK, guess we have to go through this one step at a time Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #29

Wrong step. rug Apr 2012 #30

Not the wrong step Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #32

You are asserting two different things. rug Apr 2012 #36

Funny. You still don't answer the question. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #39

From the article you posted: eqfan592 Apr 2012 #33

That's an interesting and plausible view. rug Apr 2012 #38

How the fuck do you know? Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #40

To quote a teacher of communication, "How the fuck do you know" their intent? rug Apr 2012 #44

Did you read that article? Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #48

Calling upon your mystical mind-reading powers again, I see. trotsky Apr 2012 #41

I know what you're up to. You're your usual transparent self. rug Apr 2012 #47

So contrary to what the group says their intent is Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #50

Sure. rug Apr 2012 #60

Not only do I not doubt that was their intent... eqfan592 Apr 2012 #45

These are the alternatives: rug Apr 2012 #49

I would say that those were all objectives... eqfan592 Apr 2012 #51

This is their president's statement of intent cbayer Apr 2012 #52

Probably set up more booths? eqfan592 Apr 2012 #53

Fair enough. rug Apr 2012 #59

You've been proven wrong, and been quite belligerent in defending your wrongness... trotsky Apr 2012 #65

Now, trotsky, that is the difference between you and a nondisruptive poster. rug Apr 2012 #68

Stayin' classy indeed. trotsky Apr 2012 #82

Fortunately, I dont form my perception of atheists based on you or your posts. rug Apr 2012 #86

No, that's pretty clear. trotsky Apr 2012 #91

Because that would mean the atheists have a point. 2ndAmForComputers Apr 2012 #67

Oh? Are you distributing porn? rug Apr 2012 #69

What the hell does that have to do with anything? 2ndAmForComputers Apr 2012 #70

Just the OP. rug Apr 2012 #72

Pro tip: in order for a snappy reply to actually be snappy... 2ndAmForComputers Apr 2012 #73

Follow it. rug Apr 2012 #74

Dude. That's old. 2ndAmForComputers Apr 2012 #75

Dude. rug Apr 2012 #76

Er, you may not like rug. You may disagree with rug. But his snappiness is pretty cbayer Apr 2012 #77

I can only assume that you were either darkstar3 Apr 2012 #78

It's the team. Rah rah go team. 2ndAmForComputers Apr 2012 #104

Sox do rule and Yankees do suck. cbayer Apr 2012 #107

Can't argue against THAT. 2ndAmForComputers Apr 2012 #112

Good for him. trotsky Apr 2012 #83

Well that explains a lot. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #85

It's astonishing, the lengths you will go to avoid mr blur Apr 2012 #63

Considering the OP is not about the Catholic Church, rug Apr 2012 #71

The OP is about you taking issue with something and revealing a certain hypocrisy. darkstar3 Apr 2012 #79

Why don't you comment on the article instead of attempting another diversion? rug Apr 2012 #80

Why don't you actually reply to a point put to you for once? darkstar3 Apr 2012 #81

Do you support this group distributing pornography. rug Apr 2012 #84

Had they come to me Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #87

Not so fast. rug Apr 2012 #94

I'm on my phone Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #103

Truly fascinating and oh-so-telling. trotsky Apr 2012 #106

You are off on many points. Goblinmonger Apr 2012 #111

I could answer easily, but it's not germane to the OP or the subthread. darkstar3 Apr 2012 #89

I see. You could answer easily. But you don't. rug Apr 2012 #90

More inartful dodging. If you have nothing to say about your hypocrisy, then why say anything here? darkstar3 Apr 2012 #92

How many posts will it take you to avoid an answer? rug Apr 2012 #95

And what did it get him? Nothing. darkstar3 Apr 2012 #97

There's another.. rug Apr 2012 #98

Yes, but not in the way you "believe". ;) darkstar3 Apr 2012 #99

I'll answer you too, so there's one less thing you can hide behind. trotsky Apr 2012 #93

And lets be honest, anything atheists do that might actually... eqfan592 Apr 2012 #96

Precisely. trotsky Apr 2012 #105

Not true at all. There was significant support for the reason rally cbayer Apr 2012 #108

rug, on this very forum, attempted to paint the Reason Rally in a bad light... eqfan592 Apr 2012 #113

There is criticism in this group about actions of both atheists and theists. cbayer Apr 2012 #114

I've got a bible or two laying hete somewhere... nt rrneck Apr 2012 #101
