Christians have done it. Everybody knows that. It's been front page news.
A Muslim can do it too. Did you know that? Or did the whining when the news got posted at all drown it out?
Relativism. Heard of it? It can be you drown a complaint out by pretending it doesn't matter because everybody does it. So to speak.
What it really is in that case, is whining that somebody dares to mention the thing they don't want others to know about.
It's curious that it doesn't work both ways. It's a big deal that some Priests were caught molesting children. We all know that. It was front page news. However when you're allowed to hear Imams also do it, or by conviction rate teachers are probably the worst offenders you will hear, "Wah! Priests do it. The implication is - so this time it doesn't matter. It's all relative." It wasn't relative when the priests did it though.
Perhaps you should worry more about the Priests diddling little boys rather than the coverage the other religious leaders get for doing a similar act.
Teachers are religious leaders for you, are they?
Whatever, then OK, yeah, that's my point. If the teacher does it, we will be told "well so do Priests so it's all relative." It doesn't matter.
So institutionalized kid diddling doesn't really matter there according to magic think logic, because it's all relative. Nothing matters. However, when the Priest does it, well yeah, that is all that matters and we all must immediately
"worry more" about that.
Now me, I say it's a heinous act and becomes news no matter whose doing it.
