They don't have a moral or even a logical argument.

It's an agenda plain and simple.

In my opinion.

I concur with the good Dr.'s opinion.

I tried, the evidence is here.

My questions remain unanswered so readers can draw their own conclusions.

I thought their answers and non-answers were very telling.

The topic strayed.

Then got twisted by certain posters.

My words and others have been twisted and/or outright ignored to make me look like I'm attacking the LGBTQ community as a whole, when that is absolutely not the case.

That's the gist and it's all there if you want to read it and come to your own opinions on my opinions and concerns.

That's just it.

No one was ever attacking gays or trans or anyone.

Just defending the rights of parents to determine for their own children.

Which is an anathema for some.

It is because you focus on the LGBT community as being the culpability. There are billions of people on Earth and yet people only focus on such a tiny part of the population.

But most pedophiles turn out to be white Christians.

Not likely of the Left.

Seems you are always extreme on your dislike for the White Male...lol

Funny 😆

Actually, attracted to solid on the ground white mountain men.

Rational folks are also able to sift through the BS to see the same conclusion.

I don't know why this is so controversial.

So hilarious that those people do not realize that we BOTH want the same thing.... leave the children alone!

OK I agree, I also agree that reading comprehension is important. My numbers are still correct...

From previous ATS discussions.

The thing is with the internet you can always find a source that says what you want it to.

Too many home distractions right now, but this is an interesting article.

About all I can say is that many have discredited a 2000+ year old book along with other written material that mentions many things connected to faith, religion good, evil. IMO this is not only biblical its also satanic.

Stats from your source, shocking:

Some estimates exist on the total instances of sexual abuse within Protestant Christian churches. One estimate comes from three of the largest faith-based insurance companies that insure nearly 160,000 churches. These three faith-based insurance companies reported 7,095 insurance claims of sexual abuse by clerical members, church employees, congregation members, or others involved within these settings from 1987 to 2007 (The Associated Press, 2007). These reports indicate an average of 260 claims of sexual abuse per year. In addition, Denney, Kerley, and Gross (2018) published one of the first empirical studies on sexual abuse in the U.S. within Protestant Christian settings that examined news articles reporting on arrests involving sexual abuse, finding 326 total cases reported from 1999 to 2014. Most recently, the Houston Chronicle published a series titled "Abuse of Faith," uncovering sexual abuse and cover-up within the largest Protestant Christian organization in the U.S. (i.e., the SBC). They identified 380 sexual abusers and 700 alleged victims over 20 years (Downen, Olsen, & Tedesco, 2019). Moreover, Downen et al. (2019) found that 35 Southern Baptist ministers were hired at churches, despite being accused of sexual misconduct or abuse, demonstrating a pattern of institutional issues in responding to alleged sexual abuse.

Where is the outrage? Where are the endless ATS threads on this topic?

I was doing a test of what people here feel is correct or not. You make a statement that "most pedophiles are White Christians" and not a single person, but I challenged you. That is a very strong statement to say too.

Here are the total Child abuse cases in 2021 and with this I figured the percentage per race and then looked at the percentage of that race within the population, so we get 22% of child abuse cases as Black who have a population percentage of 12%. What does this tell you?




But my point is I get hit all of a sudden with oh that is BS, link your numbers while none of those people questioned your statement at all.

I was done engaging with them because instead of a discussion about the agenda withing LGBTQ they just divert and point the finger somewhere else.

Demographics about pedophiles are easy to google and show clearly that it is a problem for everyone, not just 'white christians'. That was a dangerously ignorant thing to claim.

Mental Health Center - Profile of a pedophile

they are wherever children can be found, irrespective of age, race, education, occupation, class, social standing, or income.

.... babysitting, volunteering, hobbies, sports ... nothing left wing or right wing or 'white christian only' about that.
Psychiatry OnLine

For nonparental incest and nonviolent incidences of pedophilia, the child knows the offender (eg, neighbor, relative, family friend, or local individual with authority) an estimated 60% to 70% of the time (2, 5, 7). Pedophiles often intentionally try to place themselves in a position where they can meet children and have the opportunity to interact with children in an unsupervised way, such as when babysitting, doing volunteer work, doing hobbies, or coaching sports
