how can you trust him if you can't trust that he won't molest your children?
Catholics claim that the Bible is factual. They also claim that their representatives uphold the morals of the church, and if this is true then why have there been 10'000 child molestation charges filed in the last 50 years in the US, a statistic supported by Stonewall and Peter Tatchell.

If a priest, or any othe agency tells you not to watch a movie because there are ideas in the "fiction" that do hold water and it scares the piss out of them. Religion is a tool used to contain and control the masses. If someone says, don't watch this, read this, listen to this, then you must and form your own opinions. I don't trust anybody who claims sensorship. Read the book yourself and see what you think. The ideas contained have been justified for many years. Dan Brown has put these new facts into a work of fiction to make it accessible to the masses. Amen to free thinkers and free speech!

1. The DaVinci code is a work of fiction. It is a novel with the fact that it is fiction clearly marked on it.
2. You cannot trust ANYONE not to molest your children. Pedophilia is the curse of all societies, all professions, all classes, rich and poor and all religions. Fact.
3. I don't know where you get the fact that Catholics claim the Bible to be factual. I certainly do not believe everything in it. It was written about 1700 years ago to explain facts of religion to people of that era.
4. I don't know where you get the figure 10,000 charges filed in the last 50 years in the US, but if it came from Peter Tatchell I would be inclined to believe that it was picked off the top of his head. I would not accept such figures from a man who inflated condoms with the hope that they would float over the walls of Pentonville Prison for the use of gay prisoners............

First, the Da Vinci Code is a work of fiction, whether that information is presented by a priest or otherwise.
Second, we have free will. Even those who attempt to uphold the morals of the church. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.
Third, do Catholics actually consider the Bible as completely inerrant? I know other religions do.

Binary options let users trade in currency pairs and stocks for various predetermined time-periods, minimal of which is 30 seconds. Executing trades is straightforward. The system uses user-friendly interfaces, which even an 8 years old kid, can operate without having to read any instructions. But winning trades is Not easy.
Binary trading is advertised as the only genuine system that lets users earn preposterous amounts of money in ridiculously short period of time. Advertisers try to implicate as if you can make $350 every 60 seconds; if it was true then binary trading would truly be an astonishing business.
However, does it make any sense? Can every trader make tons of money in binary trading? Who is actually paying all the money or the profit to traders?
The first challenge is finding a trustworthy binary broker; secondly, you need to find a binary trading strategy, which you can use to make profits consistently. Without an effective trading strategy, there is no way you can make money in this business.
Learning a profitable trading strategy is possible, You should watch this presentation video https://tr.im/16635
It's probably the best way to learn how to win with binary option

Really the Da vinci code has nothing to do with children being molested, if u read or sumthing u would see that Dan Brown(the author of Da Vinci) is a novelist that only writes novels that arent real!!! is fiction!!!

The Da Vinci Code doesn't have anything to do with children being molested. It's sold in the fiction section, because as the book itself says, it's a work of fiction.

You know, the cop who wrote my speeding ticket might speed from time to time, or worse. That doesn't make it any less true that I was speeding! If you really must reject the Catholic church, fine... The protestants are saying the same thing (even the married, non-molesting preachers) when it comes to the Da Vinci Code's claims. In fact, SO ARE THE LIBERAL NEWS PROGRAMS.

10,000 cases is still a mere fraction of the number of instances of sexual abuse in the country as a whole. Throwing around a "statistic" like that doesn't illustrate anything.
Also, how many of those 10,000 were false accusations? That happens too.
Why am I bothering to answer the question of a person who thinks Dan Brown's pulp novel is a source of intelligent truth?

Well the problem with that is
Two wrong don't make a right lol
Both are wrong...
Catholic people need to stop trusting their children with Priest, Preachers, and Minister, they are only men, they have sin in them like everyone else...

Just look at what it says on the Da Vinci Code NOVEL.
It says FICTION.
Do you also believe what you read in a Danielle Steel novel?
