Finger pointing
People like to point fingers in our world. They blame Music, TV, and movies for violence, and many blame pornography for rape. Well, I tend to disagree. One can not blame a medium for a human beings acts. There has been rape and murder since the beginning of time. Well before pornography and violence in movies. They now just give those who oppose them an easy target to blame.
Unfortunately violence and rape exist, I wish they did not, as they are a terrible thing. But if people like to blame porn for rape, in the following cases can we blame religion?
I do not think so. It is so easy for people to point fingers. The fact is, people are going to do bad things regardless of what they see, or hear, or what clubs they go to. It is the person themselves.
Catholic priests abusing nuns for sex
Vatican 'knew of widespread abuse'
Pope's Web apology over sex abuse

Every likes to blame anything then can besides themselves or something they like. Religion is not to blame for the preist rapes, no more than porn makes people commit rape. It is an act of sicks people, regardless of what they watch or do. Just the fact that the same crime happens on two complete opposite ends of the moral fiber proves that it is people and not the content of what they see.
Anyone who hates any type of industry will use any excuse they can to discredit it. They have proven that here in this area with the club. But some of the folks that support the club do the same. This whole debate just needs to end.
So now you are attacking priests? Nice way to try to turn peoples attention ass hole. That club will close, and God will make you suffer for your immoral cause.
immoral...what could be more immoral than a person of the cloth having sex with children?
Anon 12:56 If you had read my post, you would have noticed that I said that religion is not to blame for the actions on those men. The fact that they committed rape had nothing to do with religion or that they were priests.
I posted those to show that people who use the excuse that patrons of strip clubs or people who watch porn commits rape is not valid.
We as a people need to stop blaming outlets such as movies, videogames, music, TV, porn, strip clubs, and yes even religion, as targets for our actions.
People commit these crimes, with or without them. If the entire world was rid of porn, rape would still happen, then the high and mighty would simply find something else to blame.
