Christian answering questions.

[Brian37]

Yes, yes, we know, that you trust people, who make unsubstantiated claims regarding the universe, demand money and political power, on the basis of those claims and shelter child-rapists. That's because you sold your reason and your dignity for some magic beans. Well done...  

 Sonny I'm not a Catholic and if I were I would condemn those priest as I do now, it's my moral position. You have no proof how the universe started and Christians have as much right to be in the political arena as atheist do. My dignity belongs to God to judge not you.

You stupidly think Catholic Priests are the only holy people who molest kids? You might argue for a long time they were more organized at hiding it.

But see, that is what religion teaches, every religion, not just Catholics. Humans mainly get indoctrinated at birth to the religion of the societies they are born in. That social structure provides the family a community, and for the most part humans are not bad, but when someone in their ranks does do something bad, the rest will blindly protect that leader because "nobody in my label can do bad".

Baptists have been caught too. Imams and Buddhist Monks have too. But even outside the issue of religion, a child molester or rapist, is does not look like a monster in a horror movie. Criminals like that rely on everyone thinking they are normal, and use positions of power and trust to get access to their victims, and the perps can be anyone, cops, firemen, lawyers, teachers. Criminals, even outside sexual assault, rely on stealth and looking normal.

Religions all do the same thing inside and outside the issue of rape, not just rape. When that person in power, or the group is called out on a bad act, the rest circle the wagons and assume there is no way it could happen because of the person's "faith".

Problem is, if labels had that magic power, or a book of any religion had that magic power, there would be no prisons in that nation, but every nation has prisons, friend and foe alike.

Glad you would condemn them. But that isn't your "faith" doing it, or a bible doing it, that is YOU doing it. That morality is in your evolution.
