I didn't ask if you cared.
I asked if you thought that the majority of paedophiles were atheist,as that was what you stated.
It seemed a fairly straightforward and reasonable question to me.
No. I don't think that although I did say 'practice' religion as opposed to simply claiming one. Also if the majority of the world is religious then it stands to reason that the majority of acts of all nature will be carried out be religious people but you'd never see people rushing to label a religious person as 'nice' or 'friendly'.
There's always an element too to these threads of 'let's all bash the Catholics' which seems unfair as this isn't extended to all religions and in most instances Jew bashing and labelling all Muslims as paedos is frowned upon on.
It's kinda like saying all people from Leeds are paedophiles because Savile was or that all glam rock frontmen were megapaedos because of Gary Glitter.
I don't see why 'paedophile' isn't enough of an insult, it's like people need to start on the Catholic bit when surely the shagging children is what we should be focussing on.
That's fair enough,and your point regarding 'Catholic bashing' is a good one.
I'm sure there are child abusers praying on kids of all faiths,although until fairly recently the Catholic church was pretty adept at sweeping it under the carpet rather than risk the adverse publicity of tackling it rather more proactively.
Maybe if they allowed their priests to get laid it would remove some of the obvious sexual tension.
This may also work 'upstairs',if today is anything to go by.
