I think fiddling with little boys is much less common in Islam than Christianity.
Also, maybe there could be even worse effects of blindly following our sexual attractions if we didn't control them sometimes.
Who cares which it is more common in? The fact it's happening at all directly due to religion is what I'm getting at.
And possibly you are right about the situation getting worse if we followed our natural sexual desires (religious people allowing themselves to think for themselves sexualy for the first time could certainly be interesting haha), but it's clear the way it is now in religion don't work. I've always followed my natural desires, never got anyone pregnant...never caught anything.... and I've never dressed a 12 year old up as a girl then fucked him. So I'd suggest there should be room for compromise within religion so that children don't get abused as a result of suppressed sexual urges inflicted on people because they have been told by their religion they will go to hell if they do what their bodies (that "god created") tells them.
