Oh the regimes biggest protector of child raping scum are the Abrahmic religions including fundamentalists such as:

• the Catholic church ran an industrial scale child raping, torture and incitement to suicide system. This pushing people to kill themselves was a key policy by the church leadership, to avoid paying compensation of their victims even after the raping priest has been imprisoned and guilt could not be mitigating

suicides(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church_sex_abuse_cases_in_the_United_States

"Church officials followed a "playbook for concealing the truth", minimizing the abuse by using words like "inappropriate contact" instead of "rape"."

And that's with a head buried in the sand approach that US authorities take with religion ie it has to be so blatant and undeniable before they'll investigate.

However from Ireland to Australia in those two countries alone the Catholics abused tens of thousands of children. There are as many or more cases in the US and yet its clear the authorities are happy to pretend otherwise.

Worse the abuse and active protection and cover up went to the Cardinals themselves, both Cardinal Pell and Clancy were rapists and rape protectors.

Southern Baptist Churches

SBC's executive committee, detailing that SBC leaders had stonewalled and disparaged clergy sex abuse survivors for nearly two decades. It also listed the named cases that involved the admission, confession, guilty plea, conviction, judgement, sentencing and registered sex offenders. It did not include cases that did not relate to sexual abuse nor cases that ended in acquittal. The report listed more than 700 entries within the parameters

The leadership of religiious organisation are devoid of the moral and ethical leadership their organisations claim is a God given.

It is little surprise they are happily refusing to mount any meaningful protests against the Trump regime.

Shit the the closest I've seen religious organizations protests the Trump regime was the grassroots spontaneous protest of various clergy in the Minneapolis to stop airlines from running ice deporting/transfer flights.

And Catholics.

It's very unlikely Joseph was in his 70s. Neither of their ages are mentioned. Common estimates for Mary are 13-14, and Joseph being in late teens or early 20s.

I had a Catholic education and it's the first time I've heard this about Mary's age, are those ages actually in the scriptures/Koran?

Yes, but Marry technically didn't get diddled.

Remember that he tried hand them over to a gang of would be angel-rapists, first.

If the Pope can figure it out, so can you.

Have you read the Bible?

Evangelical Chriatians:

I don't think the Bible talks about child brides. Without that, none of those are related to pedophilia...

As a former evangelical Christian I can assure you that any average one of them can only be said to have read the bible in the same way that I could be said to have read my favorite cook book. If that.

It's already been there forever, they're just saying it out loud now.

literally zero friction

There's a joke in there, but I'll go to Hell if I make it.

Numbers is good but for the very best ultra-violence I suggest Deuteronomy

Deut. 21:18-21

18 If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, 19 his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. 20 They shall say to the elders, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” 21 Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death.
