    Christians, Jews and Muslims would rather have their children raped than admit sky daddy is fake pedo enabler

      That’s a gross overgeneralization. When my synagogue needed a substitute rabbi, they temporarily hired Rabbi Kaye. When we complained that he was creepy and aggressive, our parents said they were uncomfortable with him and had him fired. I don’t think he was even around long enough for anyone to fully realize how problematic he was.

      That being said, I’ve met far more problematic religious leaders than well-intentioned folks.

        That’s awesome that you were part of such a supportive family and synagogue, but your comment is giving “Not all men.” Your experience doesn’t refute the experience of millions of others. There’s a reason we generalize groups who protect dangerous members within their ranks.

          Exactly. It’s even worse, I make it analogous to police.

          When your organization is supposed to stand for X but a significant portion of it does Y, you don’t get to say “Oh it’s just some of them…” motherfucker your organization is supposed to be FULLY against Y

        It is but based on historical record, it supports the thesis pretty well.

        Good that your congregation acted to protect the children though!

      SkyMan could even be real, but it wouldn’t matter if he came down and told them their shiny TV gods were full of shit. They don’t follow the heroes of the magic books; they follow their idols.
