Top 10 Most Shocking Religious Scandals

RE: Top 10 Most Shocking Religious Scandals
Nobody is perfect. But again, I imagine, If it impacted my life directly by some religious preacher, who took my donations under the promise of spreading Christian morality, but in reality he would be whoremongering like the devil, I would curse religion quite a few times.

I thought Creflo's mom missed a golden opportunity when she named him "Creflo" rather than "Freeflow".

 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Turns out the 900 foot Jesus was wrong wrong wrong . . . .

And why did Jesus want the damn hospital built in Oklahoma instead of some teaming third world shithole

They "forgot" to mention any of the Muslim scandals. I wonder why?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Hmm...things religion has done that I find scandalous...

How about disclaimer stickers on biology textbooks? Posthumous baptism strikes me as a scandal to the jaybirds as well. The burning, drowning, pressing and hanging of 'witches'. Sexual abuse. Sexual repression. Classing masturbation as a sin. Guilt ('EVERYTHING is YOUR fault'). The twin concepts of heresy and infidelity.

Too many scandals to go on with. I suppose that the all-inclusive scandal of which religion is guilty would probably be, 'Promoting religion.'

They forgot the Salem Witch Trials.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
