      80% of church goers believe that shit. The other 20% are there because of all the easy pickings.

        Bad people are still bad in church, despite baseless apologist screeching about their fantasy of skydad making morals objective.

    Name an industry that if they had this many child sexual predators, wouldn’t be immediately shut down and banned from operating ever again.

    Seriously. Can you imagine if, say, NASA had the same ratio of child sexual predators as Christian churches do? Or Applebee’s? Or Jiffy Lube? They’d all have to close up shop. Hell, there’s a daycare in my town that was in business for 30 years, and a teacher got busted for diddling a kid. That place was done for THAT WEEK. Doors closed, never opened again. Probably tens of thousands of kids came through that place just fine, but all it took was ONE, and they were kaput.

    These fucking churches need to be shut the fuck down. Those black metal guys in the 90s had the right idea.
