Not off the top of my head, but it's a fairly simple thing to look up. If I recall, there was a study a few years back that gave 93% of sexual offenders identified as religious, but don't take my word for it.
I'm not aware of a study directly comparing the two, but there are definitely statistics for sexual offenders that are queer, and ones that are religious, and it's night and day.
The LGBTQIA2S+ community often point out that it's these people doing the grooming of children not us! It's why she holds the sign to point at others and say they are the actual groomers
It is incredibly harmful to link the community to sexual assault. Even if it did happen (which it doesn't) nobody should ever be allowed to publish the statistics
They are indeed. Never, EVER leave kids alone with religious authority figures, odds are they'll get abused. Religion is a contagious mental illness, and has always been used to facilitate and conceal child abuse.
Reminder that some Republican politicians wanted to institute mandatory genital inspections outside girls' bathrooms in high schools. That's right, they wanted to make it a law that teenage vagina had to be closely looked at, and somehow it's still their opponents who are disgusting pedophiles.
Not specifically bathrooms. Sports. It's Jowling Kowling Rowling who wants the bathroom inspectors. (and, more recently, people to video anyone they don't think passes, to report to security/men/cops)
fun fact: Sexual Misconduct and Molestation Liability (SMML) insurance or Abuse and Molestation Liability Coverage exists for churches. Look up The Meeting House for a fun example of what happens when a church can't get that coverage for..reasons.

More or less. Specifically, one less more.

That second "more" is redundant, but she ain't wrong.

I love how church guy is looking at her like "Do you really have to do that?"

Being a maggot is a prerequisite for being a sex offender

Read "naughty spirit". That would have sound about right.

Owl2017
Just curious but does anyone know if it's literally true?
GoodBrotherGrimm
Yes.
Owl2017
Awesome, do you know the percentage of each?
GoodBrotherGrimm
Not off the top of my head, but it's a fairly simple thing to look up. If I recall, there was a study a few years back that gave 93% of sexual offenders identified as religious, but don't take my word for it.
Owl2017
Yeah I didn't see anything off a cursory search but that's interesting on percent that identify as religious thanks for sharing
GoodBrotherGrimm
I'm not aware of a study directly comparing the two, but there are definitely statistics for sexual offenders that are queer, and ones that are religious, and it's night and day.
kadaeux
Yes, it is, child predators especially often seek and favour professions that give them access to children, the church, teaching, law enforcement etc.
Owl2017
Yeah makes sense with different types of trusted access. Do you know the numbers?
Ryukee
The LGBTQIA2S+ community often point out that it's these people doing the grooming of children not us! It's why she holds the sign to point at others and say they are the actual groomers
Owl2017
Yeah, makes sense. What percentage of people are groomers from each group?
Ryukee
There are no statistics into LGBTQIA2S+ people being groomers. Nobody records it because it literally has never happened not in 1 millions years
Owl2017
I mean as far as sexual assault, that's been shown to be done by all groups of people all over the world across time pretty regularly
Ryukee
It is incredibly harmful to link the community to sexual assault. Even if it did happen (which it doesn't) nobody should ever be allowed to publish the statistics
SneakyGaryTheSerialHorseDrowner
It is. You'd know that if you weren't a fuckwit.
Owl2017
That's awesome, by how much or what are the numbers and percentages?
SneakyGaryTheSerialHorseDrowner
Hard to tell, because religious institutions keep covering for their child molesters rather than expelling or reporting them.
Owl2017
Yeah I'm sure whatever numbers they do have are very underreported for the religious institutions
SneakyGaryTheSerialHorseDrowner
They are indeed. Never, EVER leave kids alone with religious authority figures, odds are they'll get abused. Religion is a contagious mental illness, and has always been used to facilitate and conceal child abuse.
Have a terrible day, you trash.

Reminder that some Republican politicians wanted to institute mandatory genital inspections outside girls' bathrooms in high schools. That's right, they wanted to make it a law that teenage vagina had to be closely looked at, and somehow it's still their opponents who are disgusting pedophiles.
OtterlyMagnificent
Not specifically bathrooms. Sports. It's Jowling Kowling Rowling who wants the bathroom inspectors. (and, more recently, people to video anyone they don't think passes, to report to security/men/cops)

I believe you, but I'd like to see a source. Could you provide me either a link to a news story about this, or what I should Google for?

I doubt either of us wants this in their search history. If you have to, check for some of the articles in an above comment.

Fun Fact: The Archdiocese of Los Angeles is on the hook for nearly a -Billion Dollar Settlement- over their sexual abuse cases. https://www.npr.org/2024/10/17/nx-s1-5155203/victims-of-clergy-sex-abuse-and-la-archdiocese-reach-nearly-900-million-settlement and that's just one Archdiocese.

Man they got to learn how to hide it better like the Mormons
Snuggelapolous
I'm not sure they hide it any better. It's just somehow more "acceptable".
ragin2cajun
No trust me they have $100s of millions dedicated annually to hiding it. They have centralized capital unlike each diocese needing their own finances.
idiotsonfire
No, we don't want that. Mormons don't hide because they took over the entire fucking state of Utah, down to to city councils.
idiotsonfire
You can't have a job in a lot of places in Utah unless you're a Mormon. There's actually Mormon versions of extremist church towns too.
idiotsonfire
Like, you cannot even live or get a hotel room there unless you're a Mormon kind of extremism.
