Read the Quran!\n\nI respect your right to have a view  but please learn the real facts before you make such offensive comments.  Why to you want to hurt us muslims we are people. It upsets us when you say such things about us. Would you like it if I started calling all Americans sadistic perverts. Like linddy england (abu ghraib) is\n\nWhen you have read the Quran I would be happy to debate with you :-)\n\n\nProphet Muhammed (pbuh) never had sex with Aisiha at 9. \nThey had wedding for politcal reasons as was the case at time, and marriage comsummated much later.\nAisiha was loved and respected by The prophet. And Aisha became one of most respected scholars. She was not abused women.

Do you mean pedophiles? \n\nThere are people on the sex offender list that were caught masturbating on a boat. There are men on there in which a 16 year old girl tried to seduce them. \n\nPeople constantly get the terms mixed up and the media's brainwashing doesn't help. It just makes people paranoid. \n\nSure, I agree pedophiles that sexually molest a child should have harsh penalties. But not all sex offenders fall in that category.

Yes, they are pushing a dangerous and addictive (to some) idea that is totally fallacious and without any evidence at all, they should not be allowed to foist their abusive indoctrination onto children, let them believe what they will inthe privacy of their own homes...this is freedom of religion but please do not deprive young children of their right to freedom from indoctrination.

It is hypocritical i agree. it is condemnable to give capital punishment for conversion and i support their stand who were keeping tab on a 16 year old case of conversion. but I doubt if that man would have been in jail for conversion to any non christian relegion would it have attracted so much concern? \n\nmost of the organization in Afganistam  are looking out for their interests. the type of humanists you are looking for are not many and those who claim to be one do not go at such places where monetary benfits are absent and risk to their life is many fold.

Oh I am sure they are out there.  Just keep looking.\n\nOh yeah and, don't just handle the sexual misconduct cases.  Make sure that allegations of child abuse among church day cares are looked into as well.  Remember, the smallest members of any church like that need an advocate too since theri voices are so seldom heard.

1st Corinthians 6:9,10  Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kindgom of God?  Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor theives, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.\nThou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind: it is abomination. Leviticus 18:22\nHEY CHRISTIANS he who is without sin cast the first stone.  \nAnyone notice that he mentions premarital and extramarital sex right along with homosexuality?  Why all the homosexual bashing, what about child abusers, pedophiles, wife beaters, adulteres, liars, cheaters, thieves, etc. What about you?  What about me?

What about a former Dallas Police Chief?\n\nWhy not, everywhere in society today, you hear of crimes against children. At day care centers, on the internet, parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, teachers, police officers, etc. Just because they are a Priest, doesn't mean that you can't trust them with your kids. Considering the number of Priests/Pastors/Ministers in the world today, you not only hear about Catholic Priests committing crimes, but also Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Presbyterian, Protestant, etc. It isn't only Catholic Priests commit these crimes.\n\nTo make the assumption that All Catholic Priests are child molesters, just shows the narrow mindedness that you have.

The sex offenders list will just tell you that they are sex offenders, not if they are child molesters.  There are a lot of ways to get on that list, and many of them really aren't that much of a concern (indecent exposure when drunk, for example).  Police officers actually encourage people NOT to look up the lists.  Sometimes people just do one stupid act, then someone thinks they are a pedifile, and they end up being the victim of a lot of hate crimes.

Unfortunately there is no easy answer with today's paranoia. While sexual offenses are certainly horrible, society seems to be okay with the 1.2 to 1.5 million children homeless on any given night in America. They say that up to 1 in 5 children are sexually abused, 95% of which are crimes committed by friends, family, and professionals (clergy, doctors, therapists, etc.) If 1 in 5 children are abused, that means that 1 in 14,400,000 will be abused. Again, primarily by a known abuser. The odds of being struck by lightening are 1 in 600,000 so a child has a 24% chance of being struck by lightening.\n\nEveryone deserves a second chance. The Department of Justice shows a study indicating that 5.3% of sex offenders reoffend within 3 years and as the years pass, the recidicism rates decrease. Also, 2 other important aspects to consider: 1). Many if not most sexual offenders have wives and children to support and those family members should not be required to suffer. 2). Sexual offenses come in many many forms. Not all sexual offenders are child molestors. Many involve consensual sex between youth of a few years apart in age. Even today, there are children on the registries as young as 12 years old (a child?!) Many involve false accusations. (Many people say plead innocent if you are but, most cannot afford the costs yet are not poor enough to qualify for low quality court appointed attorney. When the justice system charges someone, they also continously threaten the absolute worst. Most choose to take probation instead of a chance at 30 years in prison.) Many sexual offenses involve no physical touching of anyone. \n\nBack to securing employment, I have to say that it is next to impossible unless you find a compassionate person willing to forgive. Of course, we are a nation that perports forgiveness (I guess Christians have forgotten all about that) yet the reality is that we do not forgive. We seem to thrive on watching 'lesser' humans suffer. That, to me, is far less admirable than a man who admits his crimes and weaknesses. \n\nSociety seems to not want ex-offenders to work of live anywhere. It has created a subclass much like the black people had it prior to the recent freedoms given to them. It does not seem to matter even if it is a ditch digger, ticket taker, WalMart warehouse, etc. It would seem that anytime an ex-offender is found working, someone makes a fuss. \n\nSociety, due to the media frenzy to sell compassion drawing audiences even if the media exagerates or does not report all sides, has effectively shunned ex-offenders into no chance of a life. This, unfortunately, will only lead to more crimes. When the ex-offender becomes homeless, he may be required to register on a very regular basis. It's no surprise that many hopeless ex-offenders simply dissappear. \n\nSociety seems to be content with building more prisons even though we have the highest rate of incarcerations than any other industrial society. Why not up it from 2,000,000 prisoners to 6,000,000? Why stop there? Why not build concentration camps so prisoners can make all the things that the upper classes require to live ever so comfortably? Why not criminalize more things? Maybe bring back prohibition since the war on alcohol can be just as successful as the war on drugs. Bring in the military too.  Currently, Americans owe in excess of $30,000 for every man, woman, and child. Why not triple that to $90,000? I am okay with that as I have no children who would have to be responsible for that debt even though I think money could be better spent on education, national health (we tend to wait until we are sick instead of preventative analysis...well except those who can afford it...just ignore those 1.2 to 1.5 homeless children), global compassion as opposed to terroristic threats, maybe keeping some of our own money before buying off other nations and then sending them our jobs anyway, perhaps another form of pay-off, etc. \n\nNo, the best jobs

None, don't hate others for who they are.\n\nFrom the book of Kickum indaasses:\nCh1 vrs23:\n"and so those who judgeth others shall be stricken with small genitals and unrewarding sex lives, and upon reaching the glorious world of heaven will be promptly slapped by my messenger."

Silly me-I failed to click the link. Good thing you provided that link too as I would never believe anyone who told me that someone would be callous enough or stupid enough to think or say that privately let alone in public. Added to the fact that one of the victims was the MOTHER OF HIS TWO CHILDREN !! I must be missing something but I think those kids should get a free pass to off him. Then again, that's just my humble opinion.

I am amazed that even though a sex offender pleaded down that they still do not have to register as a sex offender.  Any thing that is public record is not slander.  If he was arrested and it was in the paper then you can let people know.  Was the original offense against a child?  There are different classifications of sex offenders as well. Every state has their own laws.  There are federal laws in place for sex offenders as well. You can also go to Oprah's website they is alot of information on sex offenders there.  Recently on her show she has been pushing for stiffer penalties for sex offenders. That might be a good jumping board for you.

Would you call the acts of child rapists and murderers as acts of free will granted by God? How sick it is for a sacret person like God to let such acts happen under his control and before his eyes? Anyone thought about this? Any spritual explanations for these acts?

No.  Paedophiles admit themselves that they will reoffend.  They can't help themselves.  It's an overwhelming desire within them that drives them to such monstrosities.  However, it is possible that they are repentant, and that prison is extremely unmerciful for Paedophiles.  As such, they should be released from prison after their sentence is complete, and into full -time residential Psychiatric care, like a sealed community, into which no innocent children must ever venture.  It will remain a prison because it must be secure, but it will contain only child-molesters.  Psychiatric help should be available to these individuals as it may be that they have traumatic pasts themselves, but they should never, ever be released into society - ours or another.\n\nIt is true that this will rely on the tax-payer's money, but who would rather they roamed the streets amongst our children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews than we paid a few extra quid to keep them locked away?\n\nP.S. Castration is a good idea in theory, but they still have hands and mouths... (sorry to be distasteful, but it's an ugly truth...)

Do you mean pedophiles or all sex offenders? \n\nI know a guy that peed off the side of a boat and another boat passed by and a boy saw him. He has to register. Should he be locked up for life? \n\nMaybe you should do some research and educate yourself before asking such questions. Be more specific... I think you meant to ask if pedophiles and violent rapists should be sentenced to life... is that what you meant?

We (the U.S.) are not desecrating any prophet, you and your fellow cowards are doing that yourself by your actions. Worship who you want,belive what yoo like,but know this, screw with the U.S. and there will be hell to pay. look that fool Saddam Hussein who is sitting in a jail cell, or that coward Osama bin Laden and there actions, they are doing your "prophet" and way of life more harm then good.  They are not worth my spit. They will be gone,soon,the "west" will be around for a loooooooooong time.

Put away your pitchforks. If you threaten without trying to help people be cured of it, you're just getting off on feeling superior. IT DOES NOT HELP THE CHILDREN. I  was molested for 10 years as a child and I never wanted to see him tortured. Why? Because I am not a torturer. that would make me the same as him. You are torturers. You just want to see pain and not really help anyone.
