WHY? Does quoting relevant scripture send the 2x2;s into sometimes a nasty response??

There should be 1000 replies by now, It is real very real. In our State (Victoria) they cancelled the name Christion Conventions of Victoria to avoid new legislation that any organization where if one of their staff of the organization or management molest a child the organization is equally liable for compensation. It had to be a quick revoking because two 2x2's preachers were facing Court "BOTH" recieived 6x months jail One 12 known victims and one gossips say could be around 30 !!! And a couple sent overseas and interstate. I am an EX--victim of 2 Irving Doctrine Preacher,between 70/80 years ago.One of our jailed preachers was put in charge of caring for Paedophile victims,HOW,sick is that??

I wonder how ewesful using this metaphor actually is to the greater concern. I too wonder what throwing more religiosity at the problem will achieve. No one with the love of God in their heart would abuse a child. It's just not possible. Yet so many children have been abused by those who use their religious charisma to groom those around them. Quoting scripture could be more triggering than useful. It depends which god.........clearly many abuser's "believed in god", just not the gracious compassionate one........
