More Christianity bashing from the BBC, I wonder if they would carry out similar reports aimed at other religions?
It doesn't surprise me, RATTER, at it's best religion is dishonest and at it's worst it is evil.
"Nearly as bad"? What does that mean? It's either right or wrong. There have been cover-ups throughout the centuries and I doubt if anything is going to change.
I wouldn't trust them when it comes to reporting crime as they don't even know the correct meaning of the word 'witness'.
"More Christianity bashing from the BBC"
A program reveals the extend of paedophilia that is deliberately concealed by an organisation, and the best you can come up with is this facile remark?
You really have been brainwashed by the Daily Mail's anti-BBC agenda.

And who carries out your 'brainwashing'?
"More Christianity bashing from the BBC, I wonder if they would carry out similar reports aimed at other religions? "

Instead of blindly wondering it maybe better for your knowledge quest if you tried to research this online, it's as simple as googling "Bbc" "Documentary" and "(Insert religion you want to find out about -here) "

It's amazing at what you can uncover when you have a little look around, but please don't believe the first thing you come to as there appears to be a large web of deceit spun by large media organisations but you'd probably already know this.
Would we consider Jehovas Witnesses to be a cult rather than a religion?

What other religion has been in the news because of cover ups of rampant child abuse?

Does this story not shock you?
By the way AOG...it's arguable as to whether JVs are actually Christians.

So bearing that in mind, could it be that your first assertion is not true?

Oh, hang on - what phrase are we supposed to use when you make a point that can be argued against?

You know, the one you used yesterday so as to not call you a liar.
the BBC website hasn't looked like that for some years.

how old is this piece, exactly?
RATTER15 - it is the JW hierarchy that provide this loathsome and indefensible secrecy that allows abuse to continue, as it is with the Catholic hierarchy.

We should be careful to pinpoint where the blame lies, rather than appearing to infer that the entire faith followers accept and condone the behaviour of these vile egotists.
My grandmother used to say "Them? I'd trust them as far as I could throw a dead horse by the arse." She died before anyone in the family got to know who 'Them' actually were.
I get JW's at my door most weeks...so I just tell them that I'm a practising Buddhist. Sends them off pretty sharpish!

All depends on who does the covering up, and what goes off in other religions that we get to know little of.

When such bad things do get reported about Islam for example, some are quick to state "that all Muslims are not the same" yet the way Christianity is constantly criticised especially from atheists, one would think that anyone who supports the Christian faith are either 'nutters' or at worst child sex offenders.

/// Does this story not shock you? ///

Of course it does, and it matters not if it is committed by Christians, Jews, Muslims, or even Atheists.

Just found this,

Bill Bowen, from Kentucky in the United States, resigned as an elder in 2000
Not that it matters but first aired 14/7/02
AOG - "When such bad things do get reported about Islam for example, some are quick to state "that all Muslims are not the same" yet the way Christianity is constantly criticised especially from atheists, one would think that anyone who supports the Christian faith are either 'nutters' or at worst child sex offenders."

If you check out my post - which is three above yours - you will see my defence of Christians - and I am an atheist, so although 'some' may appear to criticise Christianity, it has nothing to do with not believing as they do.
this article appears genuine, it's dated 2008.

Don't they carry the bible and preach the word of God?

Whereas I do not have any particular liking for Jehovah Witnesses, the one's I have come to know personally have done me no harm, and one has to admire their commitment.

Just because one doesn't agree with their views doesn't mean that they should be insulted for their beliefs, any more than a person with a different coloured skin should be so insulted for being different.
