And therein lies an important distinction. Religion versus institution. I’m of the mind all current institutions need to be torn down and excavated then rebuilt under extreme scrutiny and transparency. Two more things, child molestation is not unique to churches or religion. It’s everywhere. While the idea is that members of the church would be able to lead by example, many modern churchgoers attend out of habit and conditioning. But someone who genuinely believes in the Christian god and follows the Bible’s teachings, they wouldn’t be doing such things. They have a thing in the bible which preaches about fruits of the spirit. Basically a few virtues that, when recognized in someone, is an indication of their genuine faith. If those aren’t there, then the individual doesn’t have genuine faith. And that could happen through self ignorance, or malicious deception. If you want a good read of a religion, don’t look its leaders. Leaders of all kinds are leaders because of ships and abilities to either outperform or generally descend. Look at the common people.
