Yes, I agree — this should happen to all child molesters, whether religious or atheist, Baptist, Catholic, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Anglican, Church of Mao, etc.

Some people pay less attention to the church they attend than they do buying a new car.

However, in this case, the pastor has not yet been tried. There have been numerous cases in the past where accusations were made and turned out either unsubstantiated or outright false. So let him have a fair trial first.
Then if he's found guilty, shoot him.

Organized religion is evil.

I agree with you.The coverups from highly organised churches means that not only the offender,but the enablers must be held to account.lets just let god and our laws sort em out eh? Not some fancy robe.

yes, that is correct.
I was reading that out of the 2% of all pastors accused, only 0.53% were dismissed and the number of those convicted is even less. A fair trial is needed before judging, yes

Because there is a contingent of Catholics who have a semi mission to point out whatever non Catholic Clergy are involved or accused in Sexual Battery.
As I posted in a different thread started by Mr Chronos, think of it as attempting to rehab the RCC by saying “they did it too!”

I agree with Yehuda. The problem lies with the person who committed this and has nothign to do with the basics of the religion itself. I will not say that if a Presbyterian preacher molests someone, that is a commentary on Presbyterian religion.
This is again different from Islam where contract, short-term marriages are allowed.

The message i get from the catholic church is “We are sorry but due to church difficulties,we are unable to function properly at this time”.hell you used to burn people at the stake!Oh the fallability of man.

What slander are you talking about? The Riverside PAstor faces 91 sex-related charges. Are you saying that the article is lying?

I didn’t read your mail. I deleted it.
Given your home page I recommend the anti freeper fight sites for you.
Bing for “Liberty______ “ followed by various words, will locate them for you.
They fight 24/7.
