"take responsibility for what I wrote"?  What kind of shaming fantasy are you 
caught up in?  Your attempt to put me on the defense about my post isn't going 
to work, I'm not buying into your routine.

This may help, they are actual people who I communicate with.  You are 
pretending to be offended on behalf of imaginary people in your own head.  I 
spoke up for them (the real people) for specific things you said about THEM 
that I thought were wrong.  You are just running your usual "how can I turn 
this post into something shameful. Is there any person I can imagine who might 
be offended by something? Oh I know, I'll be offended on behalf of imaginary 
priests who don't post here."
