Im Jewish. Never heard of this shit until today. Fucked up. No matter what race or faith.
Ignorance does not equal innocence. It would be best if those who followed the Jewish faith cleaned out the riff raff themselves.
They are 98% riff raff
We've seen pedophiles, psychopaths, and abusers in every religion: Catholic, Protestant, Mormon, Muslim, and the many off-shoots of these religions, not just Judaism.
Unlike the Roman Catholic church, which had a horrible pedophile problem, the Jewish people don't have a central authority able to "clean out the riff-raff" of every practitioner of their religion, which, like most religions, has many off-shoots with their own rules and practices. How is a Reform Jewish congregation in Brooklyn, for example, responsible for a small abusive sect in Guatemala they'd never heard of?
Sometimes ignorance does equal innocence.
For example, we all know that horrors are occurring all over the world. We are not guilty of committing these crimes or of allowing them. There is a world population of 8 billion people, some of whom are sick and evil. As individuals, we don't have the knowledge, power, resources, ability, or authority to detect, identify, and stop all of them.
It's not like we, the decent citizens of the world, just shrug our shoulders and do nothing. The citizens of most developed countries pay a significant amount in taxes to fund operators to respond to crime reports, Child Protective Services to investigate child abuse, police to find and arrest perpetrators, courts to try the cases, and prisons to keep the criminals locked up.
Most of us thought these institutions were doing their best to arrest the criminals and protect the innocent. It took the Great Awakening to show us that the criminals have been taking over and running these institutions for some time.
Hopefully, the taking back of these institutions by the good guys should clean out the riff-raff of all religions.
I'm a recovering Catholic. I've heard of this kind of shit since I was a kid. You're right, it IS fucked up. And certainly not confined to one particular race or faith. But we all have our crosses to bear.
There was a documentary on Youtube (I think), a few years ago. Followed the story of a young boy who escaped this sect. From what I recall he was American and his family was heavily involved.
