That's organized religion.

Gaslighting. It's gaslighting the poor girl into obedience. Never be afraid to name names of anyone who threatens, tries, or does abuse you. The "sin" is theirs and will always be theirs, and if you remain silent they are free to sin again and ask forgiveness.

I'll preface this with that I'm not a believing Christian, I don't even believe in God. But I grew up with religious grand-parents and also had religious education since childhood from talking to our town priest at various summer camps that were organized and supervised by the church. I was that weird kid that always asked too many questions.

It's one of those attempts at bible-thumping that is just abhorrent and completely wrong.

In Christian belief (more strongly held to by catholic branches of Christianity), Jesus endured torture, insults and death and in return, he only wished for salvation for everyone (including the people insulting, torturing and killing him). Jesus did this because he knew that the only entity that is allowed to judge you is God and God will judge you when you die and by enduring the atrocities committed against him, he showed faith in God's fair judgement.

Technically, that means that seeking revenge or justice for a crime committed against you is equal to not trusting in God to judge your perpetrator(s) fairly in afterlife and as such is not living the example that Jesus gave. Instead, you should forgive and pray and hope that your abuser will understand and repent his wrongdoings.

It does however not transfer their sin onto you, you are committing a different sin in doing so, so they keep their sin of being a childfucker, so what these kooks are saying is baloney. It's also entirely unchristian to demand absolution from anyone but God and it's a sin doing so. As a victim, it's also allowed to think about and voice your anger and frustration of crimes committed against you, you should just not act upon your anger irrationally. Suing somebody for damages is not irrational, telling them to fuck off and never come near you ever again is not irrational, so they are plainly wrong.

Uber Christian bull shit

Religion is for grifters and morons.

If they're not making money off of it, you know which one they are.

Never is.

They don’t like drag queens because the drag queens might teach their kids to be literate.

All religions are death cults

There was a pedophile priest who had the parents of a boy he molested complain to the bishop. The bishop, in his wisdom, moved him to be a teacher in my school. An all-boys boarding school. A few years after I was there, he was convicted of molesting a boy at the school, as well as the original case. His sentence was 2 years of probation. He died in his 90s just a couple of years ago, and his obituary was full of praise and warm memories.

Meanwhile, one of the boys in my class who I now can see was being groomed by this priest, took his own life before he was 50, after what was described as a very difficult life. I think it's pretty obvious why.

In the 40+ years since I left that high school, no one from the school or the diocese has ever contacted me or my family to see if we saw or experienced any abuse.

If I learn a "friend" abused a kid... They're not my friend anymore, and likely never will be again

A friend isn't a sacred thing, if someone turns out to be a piece of shit, I drop them like a stone. They're dead to me. I will never excuse someone's abhorrent behaviour like that. To still stay friends with them and maybe even excuse or hide what they did.. is unthinkable to me

According to this site MN mandated reporting they might be:

People who must report

Anyone who is a professional or a professional's delegate engaged in the practice of the healing arts, social services, hospital administration, psychological or psychiatric treatment, child care, education, law enforcement, or employed as a member of the clergy.

I say might be because it states "employed as a member of the clergy". I'm betting they would claim "everyone who knew" was a volunteer (i.e. not "employed").

I'm a member of a Christian organized religion. I don't think Christianity itself is to blame; PERVERSION OF CHRISTIANITY IS, but not Christinaty itself.

Any true Christian would report this (doesn't matter if they are legally required to or not). I'm not willing to stand in front of St Peter & God on judgement day and try to defend that kind of inaction.

They should have many years in prison to work to atone for that.

What does that even mean?

I feel like the rotten brains out there who only know scrolling can no longer detect even a hint of sarcasm unless ChatGTP tells them that it's a joke.
