        I guess I have to reiterate: Child sexual abuse is perpetrated by people of many different backgrounds. Using a handful of perpetrators who identified as LGBTQ as an argument against all people who are LGBTQ is bigoted. Using a handful of religious leaders who are perpetrators of sexual abuse as an argument against all religion is bigoted. I’ve noticed you only seem to care about one of these, though…
