Wonder where God was when these children were been abused?
Obviously not interested in their plight, more interested in glorifying himself and been worshipped.
In the Old Testament Lot's wife got turned into a table condiment by God for the 'sin' of looking over her shoulder and yet God allows this vile, stinking, piece of excrement to continue his abuse of children unchecked?
Yeah, right.

Well, theres many times in the OT that God ordered the Israelites to keep the female virgins of conquered nations for themselves as plunders of war. (just how they would know that they were virgins has never been explained to me, and why would they want to keep female virgins as plunders of war...except as sex slaves...has never been explained to me either)
Theland, that's more for you to try and defend than me, this sub-human used the umbrella of your god and the tacit support of his worship system to enable his unspeakable acts.
Quite rightly, in my view, andy... just like with Islam. Blaming the religion, or "safeguarding" (??) is a total cop-out. The man is a pervert.. 100% his own fault and his own responsibility.
The fact that the bible tells the Israelites to take unbeleiving, female, virgin, captors of war for their own pleasure is bypassed by modern believers.
Do all recognise that it was Theland who put up this thread. If you were of a mind to blame him or belittle his beliefs you should have posted it yourself. I can only surmise that Theland is more "disgusted" than even the mullahs and imams.
Yes... although from the OP, criticising "safeguarding", seems a bit like saying adults can't be blamed for their behaviour, if nobody else stopped them.
It would be useful all round, if we could just accept adults are responsible for themselves.
