Here is a comment to my recent Facebook and Twitter posts on sexual abuse within the Catholic Church:
-It’s not only Catholics abusing children, other religions do it too!
This comment is pretty interesting, because it actively neglects the fact that no other religion have abused as many children as the catholic one.
This comment justifies sexual abuse because other religions do it too.
This comment prevents pulling the abusers out into the light, and it prevents the abusers from facing criminal charges.
This comment protects the abusers and it’s lack of action permits them to continue raping children.
This comment supports the Vatican’s historical protection of the abusers.
This comment clearly shows that moral values based on religion are absurd and sometimes perverted.
–
This comment clearly shows what is wrong with religion, because it clearly exposes what a limited mind a religious person can develop.
–
Sexual abuse is wrong, no matter who the perpetrator is! Period.
– Supporting an organization that actively protects sexual abusers is wrong, no matter what kind of organization it is. This means that arguing in favor of, or participating in the ceremonies of, the Catholic Church is morally wrong! There is no justification for any of it. Period.
If you support and/or participate in the activities of such an organization you are a large part of the problem. You are no better than the perverted abusers. Period.
If you support an organization that protects, and indirectly promotes, perverted child rapists you need to re-evaluate your moral values.
