Exactly the same.

Minus churches... more or less anyway.

And probably a lot less little children traumatized and scarred for life..

 

Just sayin'

If your reffering to pedophillia.  It's actually less common in the priesthood then it is in the general population.

It would still be a lot less... or do you disagree with my statement?

Well of coruse I do.

It's far less common in churches then it is in the regular population.  This means one of two things.

1) Churches attract less pedophiles then everyday life.

2) Churches cause less pedophiles then everyday life.

 

If you believe in 1.  The answer is there would be just as much traumitized children.

If you believe in 2.  The answer is there would be MORE traumitized children.

There is no way with religion there would be less traumitized chidlren based on the facts.

Chances are however... it's number 1. 

Even if it was 1 child affected by the church, I would consider that "a lot" - apparently you have different views... o.0

Yeah... it's called common sense.

If religion didn't exist.  Those pedophiles still would... they just wouldn't be priests.

It's like saying the yankees are responsible for a bunch of deaths because a serial killer was a Janitor at their stadium.

He would of been a serial killer no matter his job.
