Not again....
so true.
to op - smart people go for golem as it earns isk is much faster; lazy people stay with cnr and eventually got ganked as they need pretty expensive stuff to be somehow effective.

I would go with a CNR for PvP
for pvp I'd choose raven. if people see your cnr they'll probably blob you.

Thread is about missioning.
That is correct. Missioning golem is a torp one. |

1. Eve Lags. Sometimes a lot.
2. There are many more cruisers in missions than there used to be.
3. The danger from tackling NPCs is currently very minimal, however in past versions of EVE (and likely again in the future) it could be considered a substantial risk when combined with lag and large numbers of NPCs.
4. Initial investment vs. ISK made.
Point 1 - As a previous person stated - the best way is to find less crowded system. But even putting this aside - Golem's tank is must stronger and shield-boosters can work non-stop with the same cost of equipment as for CNR, if not less. I heard Paladin pilots use cap-boosters sometimes, but not Golem pilots for sure. The bottom line is when you expect lags - Golem is much better choice.
Point 2 - Mission cruisers are defenitely not a problem, because pretty much any of them get killed with 1 volley, except for HACs, but the same goes for killem them with cruise missiles. People usually underestimate Golem painters, but in fact you can even kill most of frigates with like 2 volleys.
Point 3 - Even if you get into tight spot, which doesnt usually happend because Golem has better tank, Golem has strength to take down most dps dealers quicker and get back to the point where it can tank the remaining npc.
Point 4 - I dont like the investment to cruise missiles because I dont use them in PvP. On other hand - torp skills are must for Phoenix, as well as AWU 5.
Summary - I may think of CNR to be a good choice for stealth bomber pilot who is currently busy with training something else. But overall Golem is better and it can also loot/salvage during the mission, which is a great advantage many people forget about.
