More 'filth from the faithful', but of course this has absolutely nothing to do with them being Christians, it's just coincidence, or their schizos or they just did it as a hobby in their spare time, nothing to do with Christianity! And even if it is, it's only Catholics anyway! hmmm, no the Anglicans were at it last week in Adelaide weren't they?

Keep these filthy creatures out of our country. No to Christian immigration!!

Sex claims against US Church rise

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/45159000/jpg/_45159227_-10.jpg
The Pope has criticised US bishops for their handling of sex abuse scandals

The number of new claims of sexual abuse made against US Roman Catholic priests rose by 16% to more than 800 last year, a Church report says.

It says the Church paid $436m (£313m) in 2008 for abuse cases. Most of the money was used to compensate victims.

The study covered almost 200 dioceses and religious orders across the US.

It found that more than one in five victims were under the age of 10 when they were abused.

Although the number of claims made against the Church rose in 2008, the total cost dropped by 29% compared to the previous year.

The Associated Press news agency said 2007 was an unusually high year, when the Archdiocese of Los Angeles began paying a $660m settlement to about 500 people.

The annual review tracks progress made in implementing the Charter for the Protection of Children, adopted by US bishops following a scandal in Boston in 2002.

Cardinal Francis George of Chicago said the Church was "on the right path" in its quest to better protect "all children in society".

Hannah Shah had been raped by her father and faced a forced marriage. She fled, became a Christian and now fears for her life.

We are all too familiar with the persecution of Christians in countries such as Pakistan and Afghanistan. Yet sitting in front of me is a British woman whose life has been threatened in this country solely because she is a Christian. Indeed, so real is the threat that the book she has written about her experiences has had to appear under an assumed name.

The book is called The Imam’s Daughter because “Hannah Shah” is just that: the daughter of an imam in one of the tight-knit Deobandi Muslim Pakistani communities in the north of England. Her father emigrated to this country from rural Pakistan some time in the 1960s and is, apparently, a highly respected local figure.

He is also an incestuous child abuser, repeatedly raping his daughter from the age of five until she was 15, ostensibly as part of her punishment for being “disobedient”.

That's shocking that he could do that to his own daughter, and should be keel hauled for it, but please, it doesn't even come close to 800 new cases in the last year alone...

Besides, can't you at least try to address the issue, rather than throwing everything directly off to Islam? I admit, sometimes I make references to others when formulating an argument (if it's relevant), but this is unashamed tu quoque.

Christians are dealing with it. Muslims ain't.

So there is no 'you too'.

That's what you always claim "at least we recognise it and are dealing with it".

Read again.. ON THE INCREASE.

When you actually deal with something, it generally decreases. This abomination has been public knowledge for decades now, and rather than dealing with it, it's dealing with you, and just continues to grow and grow year in, year out.

Anyway here's something to feel content about:

At least they're keeping the costs down  ;D

The taliban are screwing their orphans, the pallos and iraqis are raping their girls to make them suicide bombers. The pakistanis will burn their women with acid, kill them and laugh.


In the US, the abuse (political, eclesiastical, municipal, whateveer) is uncovered, investigated, punished and compensated.

That's the difference. evil is not elimnated but the western system faces it and does something about it while the Muslim one proclaims it and enshrines it in its sharia law.

abu - in essence, everyone agrees with you on this topic.

Jesus does

Quote:

He called a little child and had him stand among them. And he said: "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. "And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

Matthew 18:2-6


Maybe you would like to be an apostate and free yourself from the chains of religion ?

The number of muslims is ON THE INCREASE as well. You claimed it yourself.

You are an idiot Aboo...

Homosexuality is a crime and forbidden in most Islamic countries like Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc. In some relatively secular or multi-religious Islamic countries, this is not the case, Indonesia and Turkey being some examples. Despite this, homoerotic themes were present in poetry and other literature by some Muslims which celebrated male love, and were more common than expressions of attraction to women.[1] Some movements in Islam, such as the Al-Fatiha Foundation, accept and consider homosexuality as natural, either regarding Qur'anic verses as obsolete in the context of modern society, or pointing out that the Qu'ran speaks out against homosexual lust, and is silent on homosexual love. Writer Irshad Manji, a lesbian herself and a staunch critic of orthodox Islam,[2] is of the opinion that homosexuality is permissible within Islam; however, it only remains a minority viewpoint. Within the Shi'a school of thought in Islam, thinkers such as Ayatollah Khomeini have argued the legality of sex-change operations if a man is homosexual, and feels effeminate.[3]

Of course you have to wonder about any faith where murder is a lesser crime than sodomy.

Grendel, we've already been through the Orientalist fantasies and claims about Islamic society, they were nothing but rubbish. Sodomy has always and WILL always be forbidden in Islam, and a capital offence. Unlike in the Christian West where it's not only become legal, but even celebrated in the streets, guess that's the legacy of "Greece and Rome" isn't it...

ROTFLMAO

Well I don't celebrate homosexuality Aboo nor do many Christians but unlike you and your faith we don't seek to kill them either.

It is evident that there are,  wait for it...  Muslim Homosexuals...  

Now we know you are a liar and a hypocrite and in denial...  but do you have to subject us to your stupidity every day?

Anyway, as  I'm sure you're aware, the topic of this thread is sodomising Christian priests, not whether homosexuality ever existed in Muslim countries. Please try to keep your miniscule attention span focused for a moment.

Lol...  liar liar pants on fire...  run away, run away...  

Your topic says Christian sodomy is increasing not just priests or catholic priests.  Which these days I doubt very much BTW.  Got stats?

No?

How unusual.

Oh and BTW by your very own words you said in the past that Islam does not have churches or the same heirachy that Christianity does, so Islam then is regarded as one big church buddy.

Quote:

In Pakistan, the mullahs are notoriously famous for child abuse and molestation. Every day, we hear news about a mullah sodomizing his beardless student - a very common phenomenon in Pakistan. Almost every one knows what happens in Madrassas. Even one of my friends narrowly escaped from being sodomized by his Quranic teacher when he was taking the Quran memorizing lessons. But why do these mullahs commit such a thing, allegedly condemned in Islam? Muslims are most vocal in commending sodomy, homosexuality in words? They are known to attack homosexuals in Europe.    Answer is that, according to them, masturbation is haram. Seeing any na mehramgirl is also prohibited. The only way left to satisfy their lusty desires is to sodomize one of their pupils. While reading from a shia Website, http://www.answering-ansar.org, I came across the fact that the root of sodomy lies in the Islamic text and history. Here are some examples of the gems from the history and authentic books of Sunni Islam.

Remember we ar all aware of what little self control Muslims have when it comes to sex.

Christians are nothing but hypocrites and liars. They don't even follow the ten commandments which is sortof the bill of rights to their Christian dogma. The ten rules prescribed are the rules to liveby, where as the rest of The Bible is more like one blig blog for prophets..

Most Christians are none the wiser. They're ignorant. Which is nothing strange in the west... They think being Christian just means being nice and saying Jesus is your homie. What a load of crock. This is why they get no respect both here or in Arab countries. They don't deserve it. Christians act pathetic, therefore they're going to be treated pathetic.

Notice Islamic nations have low sexualy transmitted diseases, few cases of rape, and no abortions. Why? Because they have some smacking dignity! Oh sure, the west will blow out of proportion anything little thing that happens in the middle-east, but when you compare it the sortof plethora of crime and decedence in western countries, it pales in comparison.

That's the disgusting trait of the west. They figure as long as people are anything less then perfect, nobody has a right to judge them. That's what Christianity is founded on. "Perfect God can judge me, nobody else can". bugger you bitch. You're a low life scum, I'll judge you all I want too! Morality is not absolute as in the end that makes it the same as relative. Morality scales, and therefore, people scale. Meaning others have a right to judge and punish you based on your lower moral meter!

If Christians actually cared about ethics and their dogma. They wouldn't adhere to capitalism. Capitalism is in conflict with all their basic principles.. Capitalism thrives on sexual divance, drug abuse, and a low morality scale. That's how they make money!
