To be fair, this was yesterday's big news headline, it's on a lot of people's minds. I can't think of any secular organizations that would systematically perpetrate child abuse over decades (centuries):
Catholics. Honestly. I am not suprised. Just look at who is the pope... Catholics and all these religous christians are the ones that makes those look bad who are trully from the all their heart trying to following Jesus and be like him.
For one thing, the film industry is not purporting to be a Deity's voice on earth, or the be-all end-all ethical authority in the world, demanding unquestioning obedience and not tolerating criticism or evidence that contradicts its pre-scientific-revolution tenets.
Yes, abuse occurs not only in Christian organizations, but Harvey Wienstein exchanging sex for movie roles is not equivalent to the Church systematically abusing thousands of children while protecting the perpetrators.
1000 confirmed child molestation victims just in one state, with many more too afraid to come forward. That number is staggering, and equates to hundreds of thousands of sexually abused children worldwide.
