Fact: the ratio of child abusers to normal people in every organization that deals with children rounds to around 5%

It's simply a matter of scale. The population of Catholics reaches the billions, so the instances of child abuse are nearly one hundred million. Whereas when you examine a pea sized religion like the Lutherans, they only have a few million instances

The Magic Mountain/ War and Peace
I don’t believe in god. I could conceal a primal mover or the ideality to which matter tends as god, but I don’t think any of these possibilities make god have an influence on things like morals, etc. This makes me conflicted though because I wouldn’t kill or hurt anyone, but ‘might is right’ seems bulletproof to me. So for this reason I kind of agree with this >>11837198
