This is a giant red flag waving at the speed of sound. This is projection. I would bet my salary this guy has raped children.

Is no pedophilia one of the commandments?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 months ago (1 children)

If you want your kids raped bring them around a pastor.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

It looks like they're trying to bring the pastors to the kids instead

[–] [email protected] 41 points 4 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 months ago

That hasn't stopped the Church, GOP, Youth Pastors or Cops.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 4 months ago (1 children)

If posting them in the churches didn't stop priests and pastors, why would it work differently with teachers in schools?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Their training to be a man of the cloth gains them resistance to holy damage

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Resistance sure, but they act like they're fully immune. I have a few words for the GM, shits unbalanced af

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

Hey legal question and totally unrelated.

If I got some furry porn commissioned and named one of the characters "Pastor Jack Hibbs" then alerted the media in Chino California of the existence of said porn would anything bad happen? Pretty sure it would fall under protected speech because a reasonable person wouldn't conclude I was claiming that he was an anthropomorphic fox.

Magical thinking. This man needs to be given a fucking medal for his stupidity

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

I say that Darwin awards start being awarded to the dumbest people imaginable without dying. They're so dumb that if not for modern inventions, they clearly would've died long ago. Lots of Darwin awards to give out but trump is the first. He deserves it for getting his brainwashed idiot followers to not follow simple rules to not get covid. He is personally responsible for hundreds of thousands of American's deaths.

This guy definitely assaulted a child in his life

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

Oh most def.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 months ago

At the very least he knows the age of consent in every jurisdiction.

Maga pastor projecting also his eyes look like his parents shared parents.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 months ago

MAGA pastor = deceiver.

[–] [email protected] 53 points 4 months ago

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.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Is... That a threat?

[–] [email protected] 50 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The Ten Commandments don't even stop priests from raping children.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 months ago (1 children)

There’s nothing in the Ten Commandments about not raping people period.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

You could argue "adultery" in a more general sense (or maybe in the original context outside of English, I'm not sure) could contain the modern definition as well as the general idea of "being with someone who is not your spouse".

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 months ago

No it will not.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

The ten commandments has long been known to stop people from abusing kids.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

Were teachers raping kids this big of a problem?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 4 months ago

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?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, that never happens in religious school.

Except with this teacher, the first one in a quick search, and lots and lots of others: https://www.wrtv.com/news/local-news/crime/fishers-christian-academy-teacher-preliminarily-charged-with-sex-crimes-against-children

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 months ago

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...

[–] [email protected] 32 points 4 months ago (1 children)

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".

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

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.........

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

Also school shootings ? Or is that for a diff pastor to say ?

[–] [email protected] 30 points 4 months ago

As someone who grew up in Boston... it didn't fucking stop the priests.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 4 months ago

That sounds very much like projection...

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 months ago (2 children)

He wrote "teachers" but he meant "preachers".

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

He's wrong either way.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

It's so easy to get those two mixed up.
