That’s because Satan gets his best mileage out of making Christians look bad.
And since sex is such a strong temptation for so many, it’s a really hard one to fight.
But when it gets to even isolated communities like that, you know that it has infiltrated everywhere. They are more the canary in the coal mine.
Jesus needs to come back soon as we are racing for the level of evil as the days of Noah were.

I’ve always certainly admired the Amish at a distance. How to be “in the world but not of the world” seems to be a challenge for all Christian communities, regardless of culture. I was surprised to learn of first-hand testimonies about abuse becoming entrenched even in these types of isolated, Christian communities.

Amen. As the days of Lot as well. The perpetrators of these crimes against nature and against humanity seem to be hell-bent on aggressively evangelizing and spreading their beliefs coercively if necessary. I find it challenging to know the extent to which it is appropriate for Christians to take up arms to stop the spread of evil, especially when it involves crimes against children.
In the days of Noah and the days of Lot, there was a cry to Heaven for justice. I think that is also happening today as well. Unspeakable horrors are being perpetrated against people, especially children, that God is watching and hearing. At some point, He is going to decide He’s had all that He can take of it, and He is going to intervene.
