Christian priests go to prostitutes? Where? They’ve taken a vow of celebacy? Its hardly watertight is it? Has it dawned on you maybe their relationship is in the main the boys they control? Some of course may to go to prostitues but having lived in Ireland I can say the place is well lacking in brasses and goodtime girls, the reasons could also be vastly different to the money makiking schemes Asian gangs run it for, power, homosexuality, resentment etc etc. They different scenarios that merely muddy the waters. ---

I am not saying that they do Barry, just asking why the apparently dont. You talk about muddy waters but is there any real difference in a Christian priest who abuses children, an Asian gang member of Jimmy Saville? The bottom line is that some people abuse children regardless of their religious background. ---

Hugely, there’re totally different and used by people to deflect, Saville was a sexual predator who got his gratification from sex, the Asian gangs get that but also huge monetry gain is in it, the church is one of cover up and individuals actions similar to Saville but not the same, the only thing or the only two things that are the same is/are the authorities covered them up for the sake of embarrassment and the ones who were damaged were the innocent, in all cases we’re culpable for being afraid to challenge and possibly upset people and communities for the sake of religious/being famous and cultural sensitivities. ---

There was a follow up report on the BBC about Telford today. There is no need to worry about upsetting communities if you report the news straight. Instead of saying Muslim Gang why not just say sex gand and give their names? It is a bit harder with the Church stuff as the abuse is being carried out by the clergy, but they could still say Bishop X or Priest Y instead of using the umbrella of C of E or the Catholic Church. The thing is, do we know for sure that any cover up was done because of cultural or racial sensitivity? There were meant to be sexual abuse groups all over the place, including Parliament, and we still havent gotten to the bottom of most of them. Not all are down to Muslims or other religions. They are just down to sexual gratification. ---

Its been said they can do this as the gangs know they won’t be challenged due to people being scared of being called a racist and the police seeing the vulnerable as meat like the Asian gangs, I am guessing here but names aren’t given out do to the public reaction and political and cultural sensitivities, look into it and see if I’m wrong? ---

Wasn’t your point that the BBC weren’t reporting the Telford issues because it involved Muslims? And we’ve now established that, in fact, they are reporting it so your point is disproved. Can we now lock this thread? ---

Barry, you’re free to start a new thread about all the fallout, but I’m in agreement with @bathsaint on this one. The premise of your thread has been repeatedly disputed with sourced evidence. You seem to forget that almost nothing else has been on the news apart from the Russia bollocks, including kids school free meals, and you’ve made the unfortunate decision to start spouting bollocks when challenged. You also seem to have forgotten that there have been numerous reported of incidents of sexual misconduct of many kinds, which is the only possible explanation for your bizarre assertions about priests not being involved with prostitutes or their indelible vow of celibacy. These institutions used the vast amounts of wealth and power they had, especially in places like Ireland, to ensure that these misdeeds went unheard for decades. In summary, your thread’s premise is shit, your justification for painting “Asian” (nice touch, or worrying widening of scope, I really don’t fucking know) as a particular grooming problem for \_Asia _is shit,_ \_especially because you’re on record as stating that established Christian institutions, that have been using their unique powers to abuse for centuries is somehow seen as an impossibility. Because of vows of celibacy. Give me a solid reason not to lock this thread. ---

You can change the thread title from isn’t to wasn’t, you’re going to have to speak to the editor of the Mirror as they broke the story I believe and this has been going on continued for years hence the breaking of it again, the delay of BBC coverage is what stuck out, they;re facts, also I like listening to BBC Asian network, you have a problem with that tag also? Or is it only when the term is deemed negative you have an issue? You can choose son. ---

I said it was cruel and inhumane to expect a person who knows nothing of life to take a vow of celibecy, I didn’t say once they took the vow they’d never break it, I am against celebecy and believe it to be wrong and against our nature, you didn’t read what I wrote. A lot of conservative cultures fall to temptation. 99.9999999999% of them male. ---

You still struggling to understand why the BBC didn’t instantly put up loads of articles about a story that has turned out to grossly exaggerated? I believe it’s called journalism. You know, get proof, then print. > Child grooming in Telford is no worse than elsewhere in the UK, a senior police officer has said. > > West Mercia Police Supt Tom Harding said the estimated figures for the scale of child sexual abuse in the town were **“sensationalised”.** > > “I don’t believe Telford is any worse than lots of places across England and Wales,” he told the BBC. You want religion, culture and a deliberate cover up. > **[Child abuse inquiry: Diocese had 'major issue'](https://www.google.co.uk/url?q=http:%2F%2Fwww.bbc.co.uk%2Fnews%2Fuk-43406040&sa=U&ved=0ahUKEwj5-fv0qPDZAhVlD8AKHTLVApcQqQIIITAC&usg=AOvVaw1-lYoaqRxY4FEoSa6upsLr)** > > The Bishop of Chichester tells the independent inquiry he was warned the area was 'a basket case'. Some idiot once tried to tell me that the evil that is the CofE were ok and the best of all religions. Got to wonder about his sanity. ---

More news about Telford on my BBC news feed this morning. They do name names when the men have been charged. They even publish pictures of them. ---

Link your info, as you have been asked before. If you are not working to an agenda, could you show me all the threads you have started about child abuse commited by the CofE, Catholic Church and the one that’s been all over the news lately, major charities populated with white western pedophiles(want to eat little kiddy, then do as i say). You come across as a modern Christian crusader. ---

There are lots of Christian links though to their horrendous actions, the BBC with their agenda, well you get the drift. ---

Of course not are you? The Church has probably abused millions, your point? We can discuss Saville, the CofE, the Catholic Church are their abuses but they’'re different conversations and don’t cancel each other out, expose all but treat them different, justice is blind, don’t compare.
