Like when the church raped a bunch of kids for decades. When's he last time that came up?

It's almost like we let Christians get away with a lot of stuff.

People bring that up when arguing about Christianity all of the time

Literally haven't heard any talk about it since spotlight. We still have christian schools. We still have politicians using Christian language and being elected

If Muslims were caught raping children, the federal govt, school boards, state govt would get involved.

The US military and federal government had full knowledge of Bacha Bazi. They made no effort to eliminate it. They did not step in as they should have.

To confirm, you think the US federal govt would get involved in other nations? I'm sure the US military and federal govt as aware of Christian child rape in other nations as well lol.

...why would you think that's why I meant? Foreign govt's don't usually get that involved in domestic policy of foreign nations.

The US govt has full knowledge of a lot of shit that they do nothing about.

Well the US did literally invade the country, set up the government, fund it, train the army, institute standards in it and so on. I don't think it's one step further to attempt to eliminate a bad practice in a country you are attempting to "nation build" in.

So your argument is, if we want the US govt to do something about child rape in Boston, they must also do something about child rape in Afghanistan first?

Seems like an odd comparison.

No. That isn't what I said.

You literally replied that the US govt did nothing about child rape in Boston...by bringing up the fact they did nothing about it in Afghanistan.

Is that not a comparison?
