You are the real fraud. Everyone knows what Christian Nationalism
associated with Trump is all about. There are thousands of articles on
that subject matter.

Tuberville's a good Christian so be sure he has sex with lots of kids.


And don't forget Trump's christian military has killed hundreds of Iranian
children, proving how the US Christian faith is the superior one.

Study reveals prevalence of child sexual abuse in Christian settings

One in 250 Americans were sexually abused during childhood by a leader
or other adult in a religious organization, new research led by Australian
Catholic University shows. 

The first nationally representative figures on the prevalence of child
sexual abuse by leaders or other adults in religious settings shows nearly
three-quarters of the reported cases occurred in Catholic-run
organizations. 

The research, led by ACU's Institute of Child Protection Studies (ICPS),
reveals about 0.4% of the population, or an estimated 87,000 Australians,
experienced sexual abuse during childhood by leaders and other adults in
religious organizations, including male and female clergy, priests, and
pastors. 

The analysis, published in Child Abuse & Neglect, used data from the
landmark Australian Child Maltreatment Study (ACMS), which surveyed 8,503
Australians aged 16 and above about their experiences of maltreatment in
childhood. The new analysis found: 

    Boys experienced more sexual abuse (0.8%) than girls (0.1%) by
    religious perpetrators. Almost all perpetrators of this form of child
    sexual abuse were men. Children were typically aged 7–11 when first
    sexually abused by religious leaders or other adults. Most people who
    experienced child sexual abuse by leaders or other adults said it
    occurred in Catholic organizations (71.9%), followed by other
    Christian denominations including Anglican, Jehovah's Witness, and
    Orthodox (21.8%) and non-Christian religious organizations (5.1%). 
    The prevalence of child sexual abuse at the hands of leaders or other
    adults in religious organizations has declined over time, from 2.2% of
    men aged 65 and older, down to 0.2% of men aged 16–24. 

The new study was led by ICPS Ph.D. candidate Gabrielle Hunt and
co-authored by researchers including ICPS Director Professor Daryl
Higgins, QUT School of Law Professor Ben Mathews, and ACU Faculty of
Health Sciences Associate Professor Megan Willis. 

Hunt said the data revealed boys were more likely than girls to be
sexually abused by leaders or other adults in religious organizations,
which was overwhelmingly perpetrated by men in positions of power. 

"We can learn from this data by understanding the heightened risk to boys
in religious settings, addressing the role men are playing in harming
children, and examining the ways in which toxic ideas about power, sex,
and masculinity create harm for children," she said. 

Higgins said while all child maltreatment was unacceptable, child sexual
abuse in religious organizations represented a stark betrayal of the faith
families put in such institutions. 

"Child sexual abuse by religious perpetrators is a particularly heinous
issue as it involves abusing positions of power, betraying children's
trust, and exploiting a tripartite power relationship driven by sexual,
organizational, and religious power," he said. 

The ACMS key findings, released last year, revealed 28.5% of Australians
aged 16 and above had experienced child sexual abuse. 

Mathews said ongoing analysis of the landmark research, including the new
findings led by Hunt, had revealed the prevalence, nature, and outcomes of
different forms of child maltreatment in Australia, and had galvanized
policy and practice reforms. 

"Child sexual abuse by religious perpetrators is particularly egregious.
It has affected far too many Australians, and we must support those who
have experienced it. It is heartening that the prevalence has declined
over time. Government inquiries, increased awareness and monitoring, and
child-safe regulations have influenced this decline—but the work is far
from over," he said.

Yeah, Christians are the problem.  How come you didn't report on the
fact that Muslims were behind the attacks in New York.

Fool.

When the Christians lost The Crusades in 1691, we knew that a comeback was 
going to happen.

Now we have Hegseth and Trump!

Biblical royalty!   Soon Christian Nationalism will rule the Middle East, 
with exception to the Jews, who issue our marching orders.

Southern Baptist Convention Names 700 Pastors Accused Of Sexual Abuse

Pastor Ed Litton, president of the Southern Baptist Convention Executive 
Committee, said denomination leaders must be "very mindful that the world 
is watching" their response to a scathing report revealing efforts to cover 
up sexual abuse by SBC clergy.
 

ACROSS AMERICA  The Southern Baptist Convention's governing body late 
Thursday released a secretly maintained list of about 700 pastors credibly 
accused of sexual abuse, the churchs governing body said Wednesday.

The document dump comes in response to a bombshell report Sunday from an 
independent investigator that said the top leaders of the Southern Baptist 
Convention stonewalled and denigrated sexual abuse victims for two decades 
to protect their own reputations and remained singularly focused on 
avoiding liability for the church.

The release of the names is a public repudiation of the way leaders at the 
nations largest Protestant denomination have responded to allegations of 
sexual abuse in the past. In doing so, the SBCs top leaders said theyre 
committed to listening more attentively to survivors of clergy sexual 
abuse.  Read the full list of accused clergy.

"This list is being made public for the first time as an initial, but 
important, step towards addressing the scourge of sexual abuse and 
implementing reform in the Convention, " the SBC Executive Committee said 
in a statement on its website. "Each entry in this list reminds us of the 
devastation and destruction brought about by sexual abuse. Our prayer is 
that the survivors of these heinous acts find hope and healing, and that 
churches will utilize this list proactively to protect and care for the 
most vulnerable among us. "

The denomination also released the full report of the investigation 
conducted by Guidepost Solutions on its handling of sexual abuse 
allegations. It's available on the website, too.

In a joint statement with Guidepost, the SBC Executive Committee said it is 
creating a hotline for sexual abuse survivors that will be an important 
stopgap measure until more meaningful reform can be addressed at the 
denomination's annual meeting in Anaheim, California, next month.

Gene Besen, the interim executive committee counsel, said in a statement 
after the meeting that the prompt release of the names is in the Southern 
Baptist Conventions best interests.

Its important, it is of immediate concern to the public and to the survivor 
committee, and we need to do it right away, he said.

In an interview with The New York Times, Besen said that moving quickly 
means that some accused pastors names may be redacted because the claims 
couldnt be substantiated by news reports and other sources, but researchers 
may put them back on the list as more facts are known.

We have become too familiar with using techniques to slow processes down, 
Ed Litton, president of the SBCs Executive Committee said, according to an 
account in Christianity Today of the decision to release the names of 
credibly accused pastors. We need to be very mindful that the world is 
watching, and they dont need to see business as usual... we have to do this 
right.

Under the business as usual practice, victims of sexual abuse and 
congregants who supported them repeatedly shared allegations of sexual 
abuse with top church leaders, only to be met, time and time again, with 
resistance, stonewalling and even outright hostility by some Executive 
Committee members, according to the nearly 300-page report.

Our investigation revealed that, for many years, a few senior EC leaders, 
along with outside counsel, largely controlled the EC's response to these 
reports of abuse ... and were singularly focused on avoiding liability for 
the SBC, the report said, continuing:

In service of this goal, survivors and others who reported abuse were 
ignored, disbelieved, or met with the constant refrain that the SBC could 
take no action due to its policy regarding church autonomy  even if it 
meant that convicted molesters continued in ministry with no notice or 
warning to their current church or congregation.

Survivors of abuse, both congregants and seminary students, have long 
pressed the denomination to release the list of clergy credibly accused of 
sexual abuse. The list was maintained for about a decade by an Executive 
Committee staff member who turned it over to the Executive Committees 
former vice president and general counsel.

The investigator found no indication that anyone took any action to ensure 
that the accused ministers were no longer in positions of power at SBC 
churches.

Most want his pastor to die.  He's probably a pedophile like the others.

We want all the kiddy fuckers to die.

That's why everybody hates Christian Nationalist Pedophiles for Trump.
