Let's ask the question in a very limited form. At what point could a state declare that an organization is a credible danger to children?
If there is a scale, and an organization goes over the level of harm or potential harm that we accept in the case of children....how do we, then, justify subsidizing that organization. Even more specifically, how do we justify subsiding that organization to the extent that we subsidize those organizations now when so much more direct funding is very urgently and transparently required to the citizens which any subsidy to a church is meant to service?
If we need daycares, and the only daycares in town truly are daycares that molest children or redistribute their funds to pay off claimants or hide offenders - if there's no other vendor for that service...that suggests a more prudent use of those recovered funds.
Namely, building daycares.
Not at all, lol. His hearts in the right place, his question is relevant and serious - but his positions or statements on these things could be improved - and I'm sure that's part of why he interacts with us.
