There are christians, muslims, jews, shintoist, hindus, atheist and whatever else out there who have committed the very same acts most people bash catholic priests for doing. What's the word i'm looking for here? Hypocrisy or another word?

 

Richard Dawkins who has 85,000 + followers and wrote the book The God Delusion. The person who wrote the book some of you probably became atheist after reading is nothing more than a religious lunatic.

First off, there are plenty of Christian preachers that do the same thing and get bashed.

Second, show proof of any Muslim, Jew, Shintoist, or Hindu of religious significance that uses their religious position to trick children into thinking that God wants them to fuck. If you can find numerous pieces of evidence that prove your claim than it's the Media's fault for only shedding light on the Priests.

Third, although it's not fair that every Priest is going to be stereotyped for the acts of what only some have done, you do have to admit that the number of Priests that do fuck children is a little too high. And the number just keeps on getting bigger and bigger.

I didn't include atheists in the list because atheists don't have titles that imply spiritual divinity like “Priest” or “Preacher” so atheists can't use their beliefs to fuck children. An atheist fucking a kid as equal to just a regular Christian fucking a child, it's evil but it's not the same as a Priest who uses religion to fuck children. People put more faith in a Priest than they do in just regular people because they actually believe that they are more divine than “regular” citizens. So when a Priest uses that trust to fuck their children it is going to spark an outrage.

If the bible you are thinking of is The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins than people are lead into a delusion by religious lunatic.

 

Lucem don't sit back and play dumb. You know there's people of everything listed belief & disbelief up there who have molested, raped, murdered and etc etc. You want proof google it. Muslim child molesters, hindu child molesters, jewish molesters. It's not a ploy by a faith it's a disease of the brain. You know like a malignant tumor or alzhimer'z.

 

Oh and atheism does have “priests” & “preachers” who do spread their word in a way similiar to the aforementioned “titles”. And I hear about more teachers fucking younger students than the amount of catholic preachers you say believe to be doing it.

First off, I never denied that people of different beliefs fuck children, I said that there is no proof of people from different beliefs using their religious status to fuck children.

Second, no there are no atheists that claim divinity and use their “divinity” to trick children into giving up sex.

Third, teachers are not atheist preachers, there are tons of religious teachers and teachers are also under the same scrutiny that priests are under for the child fucking.

I never said teachers are atheist. I said I hear about more teachers fucking student as opposed to hearing about preachers fucking children. There are atheist who preach their word who do try and convert people. There are also atheist who've molested children. Wonder if they felt any guilt? People who fuck children are under scrutiny not the practiced faith. There are cops, psychologist. lawyers, graphic designers, doctors and so much more that do vile acts such as the “child fucking” as you like to put it. 

 

I even said it's not a ploy by a faith it's an affliction on a person.

You do understand why Priests are getting the heat of the fire though, right? They are put up on a moral pedestal and when people find out that they are doing something like fucking kids it's pretty shocking.

lucem: 

atheists have a strong tendency to act as if their beliefs trump the objective reality that we live, as well as any other beliefs that dont match their own.  this is precisely the same thing that a hyper-religious wacko does. 

judging by your last sentence, lucem, you are also agnostic, not atheist.  i would advise that, for claritys sake, you dont refer to yourself as an atheist.  unless, of course, you decide that your belief is somehow external to your own mind.  in which case, you are deluding yourself.

If you don't  believe that your beliefs trump other beliefs than you don't really believe in your belief, if that makes sense. Of course I think my belief is truer than other beliefs, that's why I believe it. I just don't think that I'm better for having my beliefs and I accept the possibility that I could be wrong. I think I lean towards atheism way too much to just consider myself agnostic. One belief that I do hold up as truth is the belief that man does not need a God.
