Men hvem har sagt, at præcis det samme ikke foregår inden for Islam?
En undersøgelse i Pakistan er kommet frem til blandt andet dette:
The report cites a study by the Initiator Human Development Foundation in 2008, saying children from the lower strata of society studying at the madrasse religious schools also fall victim to sexual violence. The study claims seminary teachers sexually abused 21 % of sample students.
The 2008 document on human rights reports that that at least 114 children were killed for various reasons, including for honour killings, and at least 221 girls and several hundred boys were reported to have been raped, gang-raped, subjected to sodomy or stripped in public. In the nations cities an estimated 700,000 children live and work on the streets; while in rural areas across Pakistan children are being recruited by armed militias and trained for terrorist attacks.
I et land der bliver fattigere og fattigere, på grund af at befolkningsvæksten er større end den økonomiske vækst, ser det sort ud for børnene.
Det legale system i Pakistan har for stor tolerance over for den slags forbrydelser, det er sjældent at folk bliver straffet selv om det er officielt forbudt, ja som Tønder sagen viser kan man også slippe afsted med det her i lang, lang tid. Dog ikke mord.
Det er tabu omkring sådanne emner. Det er tabu for præsterne med seksualitet. Derfor mistænker man måske heller ikke dem for sådanne tilbøjeligheder, men nægter at tro at de kan finde på sådan noget, hvilket er det samme som at give dem en større mulighed for at slippe af med det.
Men religioner, er drevet af mennesker og siger mere om mennesker, end om noget andet.
Mere om samme:
The state of Pakistan's children 2004, reported 1,549 cases of sexual abuse last year; this represents a rate of three cases per day. It also stressed that the government ban on corporal punishment in government schools was frequently violated.
The situation is worse in religious schools where the government ban does not apply. Such educational institutions live up to their infamous reputation with practices that range from withholding food from children to chaining them.
The report also gives details about 529 cases of child abduction, 177 cases of child molestation, 8 cases of children murdered after molestation, 364 children raped (some sodomised), 264 cases of gang rape with 35 children killed after the gang-rape.
One is often told that it is a very wrong thing to attack religion, because religion makes men virtuous. So I am told; I have not noticed it.
-- Bertrand Russell, "Why I Am Not A Christian,"
