Just saw a documentary on the ID channel, Let us prey” about these Baptist church’s who member make women second class and they rape young girls. But instead of being prosecuted they are send to other congregations. Luckily a couple of former members of the churches was able to get some of these monsters prosecuted.

where one choice is "Okay everyone, the coffee break is over. Back on your knees". If you don't know what I'm talking about, and are interested in knowing this old joke, I'll post it. Hint: It's not sexual in nature.

This tragedy has cast a shadow over the church community and raised important questions about accountability and transparency in religious institutions.


Like this is fucking news on the corruption, coverups, and sexual abuse in religious institutions? That shadow was cast long, long ago, and goes on virtually unchecked by the slimy hypocritical hucksters and sheep suckers alike.

Child molesters and pedophiles turn out to be individuals in a position of power at a church or religious school/organization.

Yet these same religions and their churches/schools/organizations are continued to be regarded as the protectors of morality and the alternatives to the very sins they continually are found guilty of committing. It's crazy. When is it time to acknowledge the calls are "coming from inside the house" so to speak?
