Is any religious group free from Pedophilia (pizzagate)
submitted 7.4 years ago by Kacey
Since I raised the issue of Buddhist child abuse, thought I would check and see if any group was free from it.
Seventh Day Adventists seem to be straight arrows....but https://www.christianheadlines.com/blog/seventh-day-adventist-church-facing-lawsuit-for-appointing-pedophile-as-youth-leader.html
How about Hindus http://www.abc15.com/news/crime/pd-hindu-priest-accused-of-child-molestation-some-incidents-occurring-in-phoenix-temple-office http://cbsaustin.com/news/local/hindu-guru-convicted-of-child-molestation-will-be-featured-in-cnn39s-quotthe-huntquot
Mormons http://religionnews.com/2016/02/02/mormon-statement-on-child-abuse-move-along-folks-we-dont-have-a-problem/
Baptist pastor covering up for policeman (I assume both the Baptists and police have rules that would make child abuse wrong and therefore coverup wrong) http://www.al.com/news/birmingham/index.ssf/2017/09/huntsville_pastor_charged_with.html
Someone once said "power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely". Religions have power (of your fate in the afterlife or next reincarnation) In some countries where they are tied to political power or are the political power, they have even more power (of your life in the here and now). Priests, pastors, gurus, monks, rabbis, are given power over their flocks. It is a responsibility but also a temptation. IMO the more charismatic they are the less they should be trusted.
