    I’m more interested in why this comic alleges a youth pastor of something so gross as having CSAM on his device. That’s not a lighthearted or funny accusation.

    This I agree with in principal, though I would also add that the church (organised religion in general, really) has reputation for protecting it’s members for a reason.

    Plenty of times a Church has reported it’s leaders who were abusing their position and co-operated with law enforcement. My church’s policy is that you report it to the police first.

    I’m not saying there is an issue. My issue is that the comic is trying to make out that teachers don’t abuse. I don’t see how a pastor who has passed the same necessary background checks as a teacher (this is required in the UK) is any more of a risk than the secular teachers.
















  • the Kolanaki guy, that Chinese guy who keeps changing his name but has an ROC flag profile picture, LadyButterfly (she posts a lot in a community I moderate, very pleasant person). I think I’ve had my scrapings with Pugjesus and afraidofzombies, good to have discussion. There’s also someone on here called “Satan’s maggoty cum fart”

    Oh and YappyMonotheist is one of my favourites. He’s a very pleasant gentleman.There was a mormon guy here called Baldprophet, haven’t seen him in ages
