I disagree. There is no such thing as a "mild" molestation, it's all a felony and for good reason. The fact that Dawkins does minimize it is apparent by his view that it is less harmful to a child than the teaching of religion (which of course is not a felony because it harms the child in no way). It's disgusting that someone would think that the sexual abuse of a child is better for a child than teaching them that they should love their neighbor and do unto others as they want done to themselves. If you can't see that then I don't know what to tell you.

But it's just "love your neighbour" is it?

It's all the rest of the bullshit, that things like masturbation and homosexuality is a sin.
That the universe is only 6000 thousand years old.
That you should feel guilty just for being alive.
That you should accept things on faith alone and without any evidence, yet reject anything that contradicts the 2000 year old writings of a bunch of unwashed goatfuckers.

Eventually child molestation will stop(which is not to say I don't find it utterly reprehensible), but the poison of religion will last a lifetime.
