That's all very nice but you didn't answer my question.
Do you know any practicing Muslims?
or Sikhs, Hindus, Jews, Catholics etc?
With regards to your thoughts on the catholic church compared to the protestant i think a quick look into the child abuse history of both might open your eyes. Barnardos kids homes spring to mind
In addition non-denominational institutions responsible for the care of children & young adults also have had some hideous incidents.
Situations where people have 'control' over one another are always high risk for abuse particularly if they have an environment where those in charge are rarely if at all required to account for their own actions and know they will usually be believed compared the the victim.
If being married stopped paedophelia how do you explain the likes of Fred West or Josef Fritzl?
Why is the catholic church seemingly being tarred more than the protestant faith in the media? A topic for another thread perhaps? The systematic denial of any wrong doing and then admitting they covered the whole thing up but wouldnt reveal names would be a big factor I'd say.
Perhaps because there isnt a protestant equivalent of the Pope so there isnt a focal point for the world media to home in on? Who knows
I look forward to your thoughts followed quickly by another post congratulating yourself on them
