      “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.

    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”.

    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.

    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…

    He wrote “teachers” but he meant “preachers”.
