Don't worry Danny, as mankind thoroughly washes their hands of God, redefining good and evil, this will be legalized and normalized. (see link below) Hopefully, Christ will intercede before then. While you're on your crusade, shining light on evil in the world don't forget to expose Hollywood and the politicians I think you will find them to be pushing the agenda of perversion, and acting out said perversions far more than the religious types But that doesn't fit your narrative does it?

Some individual churches focus on the pastor too much and give him too much power, IMO. This kind of structure creates a place for power hunger pastors to take advantage of people. When you have a church where the focus is on God and no one person is taking all the credit for God's work, it fosters humility among the leadership. All men (and women) are capable of falling into these kinds of sins. I think part of the solution is to get back to the basics and quit putting certain leaders on the pedestal as if they were little gods. That's my 2 cents, and worth every penny what you paid for it..
Right now I’m having amnesia and déjà vu at the same time. I think I’ve forgotten this before.

Why weren’t you guy’s circling the wagons when it was priests polygamists? I see now why it’s covered up so easy

It is in all walks of lives but some jobs/positions have made it easier to hide the behaviors. The sad part is the way groups like, churches, scouts etc. have covered it up by moving people around, buying the victims off etc.

People are people. Doesn't matter if they are baptists, catholics or atheists, This problem is pervasive in all walks of life.
Danny of you are expecting people to be perfect, no matter what their place in life, you are going to be disappointed. Very true statement.

Back now to the original post. It seems preying on children is not primarily the realm of Catholicism or Mormons.
I can't help but wonder if it is their way of dealing with desires they don't want to have. Desires they tell and have been told are a choice. To ashamed of them to ever put a voice to them. So instead they hurt others. Whatever you say is your truth. It's always interesting to me to see how these detractors are constantly searching for the negative. They ignore the good so many Christian organizations do and only focus on anything that casts negative light on Christians. There will always be imposters masquerading as Christians. To understand Christianity, one only needs to look at what Jesus taught and expected of his followers.
We are living in a time when people with common sense are silenced so stupid people won't be offended.

Why was it okay to talk about fundamentalist mormans and catholics? Seems odd your attacking me for posting the news link and making excuses for pedophiles

Lots of foster kids also got/get abused in a lot of ways.Sexual,physical,etc.And by otherwise upstanding families in communities.99% i bet never found out about. What do you think the ancient story of cinderella was all about.

So instead they hurt others. I think it has more to do with control and authority. Religion to a certain extent is about control and attracts those that like to control others. This doesn't stop at religion or them but extends to the feeling of power when they control people sexually also. I say this as a religious/spiritual person but over the years I have noticed a theme.

Cops have really cracked down in the last 10 years or so. Used to be common to see these young kids working a parking lot that wasn't "claimed" by whoever was controlling the drug/ sex trade in the notorious spots of Ontario CA, East St Louis, Tucson etc. I dont want to know what makes a 12 y/o choose sex work for a truckdriver/pimp over living at home. Not all runaways made it to LA or San Fran to get recruited.
doesn't change the fact that clergy seem to be prone to this. wonder why that is? perhaps denial that they have the birth defect now called "gay"? I agree. This has been going on for millennia, just look at Roman and Corinthian culture of 2000 years ago. Nothing is new, us calling out this perversion wherever it occurs is a good thing. It doesn't matter whether it's civil authorities or religious authorities outing these characters, it is the right thing to do. I also agree with your "gay" characterization. If a person is born a sociopath, a kleptomaniac or with a sexual mental defect, those issues do not excuse bad behavior. That may sound harsh and "unfair" but that is the way it is.

Cinderella was a democrat-didnt like to work-she deserved the beatings. That's not the way I remember it. She was a Republican and did all the work and the rest of the family who she supported could never get enough, so they tried to marry money.
