      “I know if I carry around my pocket ten commandments at all times, it stops me from sticking my old sweaty semi-hard cock into every sweet virgin 10 year old butthole I can get my hands on. So you should display them everywhere I may be in contact with kids, just in case I misplace my wallet.” - This Guy, Probably

          Sorry about that. It was vile to write, too. But it illustrates how vile someone has to be to think that the only thing stopping child rape is reminding them that “it’s against the rules”, which… it’s also not against their rules, either. No commandment says anything at all about rape or pedophilia, which is just wild. But don’t worry, they got the one about not making any idols/“graven images”, so… the day is saved. In fact, both rape and pedophilia are often completely condoned in the Bible, at least under certain circumstances. So, yeah, I don’t get this guys logic even a little.

    Makes sense. It has definitively stopped child abuse in churches! Oh, wait.

    I dare say he’s already breaking one of the ten: that of bearing false witness, by claiming in the general sense that teachers are raping kids, when he knows it’s not true.

    It hasn’t stopped preachers from raping kids even though the ten commandments are in churches.

    Beside the idiocy of thinking that the mere displaying of the Ten Commandments automatically makes the property in question somehow more righteous, more moral, or just generally safer for children… you do know that the Ten Commandments, notably and infamously, do not have any commandment forbidding rape OR pedophilia. And, in fact, the Bible seems to be generally fine with those things at least under certain situations, so…

    Honestly, probably helps explain all that child raping going on in churches. Nobody wrote down that they couldn’t.

      Yup, the Bible btw loves rape. There are tons of stories about rape in there… And they don’t all end with “that’s why you shouldn’t rape”.

        There’s fucking instructions on how to getcha a good rape victim!

        Numbers 17-18 (paraphrased):

        “1.Kill all the men and boys. 2. Kill all the women who has had sex with a man. 3. Kidnap the remaining women and girls that are still virgins, and take them for yourselves as wives.”

        Judges 21:20-23 (again, paraphrased):

        "Go stalk and hide in the places where young women do their traditional dances. When they come out to dance, catch and kidnap one for yourself and take her as your wife. When their male family members protest, tell them that the men should actually be helping you to steal their daughters and sisters because you didn’t didnt manage to get any in the war, so you need these girls. Tell them it’s fine, they don’t have to be guilty, because they didn’t actually offer them the girls themselves.

        And they did that, kidnapped the young women, and returned home with them."

        For context on this one, there was a place that most isrealites deemed too sinful to exist, like Sodom, so they decided to do a genocide on it. But one tribe refused to do said genocide, and stood against the rest of the tribes. All of that tribe were then killed except 600 men by the rest of the Isrealites.

        But that left those 600 men without wives, and they were still the chosen people. So, while the rest of Isreal swore to never let their daughters marry someone from that tribe, they still decided to help get them replacement wives… with another genocide. When another tribe failed to join their war coalition, they went and killed everyone there except the virgin girls, around 400 of them. Then gave the wifeless tribe the above instructions.

        What makes this story extra shitty is the entire reason for the original genocide was because one group of men raped and murdered one woman. While that it abhorrent, they then corrected this crime with at least 400 rapes and tens of thousands of murders. Yaaaaay. Much better. Thanks, The Bible!

        That shit is in the fucking Bible. Read those passages for the direct translations without my paraphrasing, if you like. It doesn’t get any better.

    Which number commandment prohibits rape, and which prohibits child abuse?

    Weird how they could fit at least three “suck up to god” commandments (depending which sect is counting), and neither of those two, or “thou shalt not treat humans as property”.

      While not the commandments of course, the bible does state that a man who lays with a boy, the way he lays with a woman, should be killed. Of course again, the church perverted this meaning to make out that being gay was outlawed by the Bible, specifically at the expense of not being allowed to rape little boys…

    The ten commandments have done a really good job of keeping tens of thousands of clergy from raping millions of children worldwide over the past centuries. How could this possibly not work?

      I mean a lifetime dedicated to the church and god didn’t stop all those rapist priests, but surely a poster on the wall with 10 rules will…
