The usual oh it's not the church or religion it's society arguments are always used as those of a religious faith have an answer to everything apart from evidence God exists .

The fact remains that people who abuse children have been operating within religion for many years and those in charge of religion have stood back and let it happen , even moving those alleged to be carrying out abuse to different areas .

Its a shambles that religion should be ashamed of .
Why do you repeat yourself over and over multiple times in threads? You've had your view. People have read it. Move on.
