Is it time to ban church in the US?

In the last 3 weeks alone, 30 religious figures, mostly youth pastors, have been arrested for sex crimes involving children.
Since there is such a huge discourse around banning or restricting things to help protect children, (except guns of course) we should just ban church services outright, right? It is clear that the people who attend and lead them are the biggest threat to children in America (except guns of course).
You’d assume that republicans would be in favor of this ban, but they are more interested in projecting their own tendencies onto drag queens and lgbt people.

Can you name a religion that treats women as equals? You’re either a subjugate to a man, or the faith, or both. And with that as the foundation, you “expect” them to treat the drag queens and lgbt well?

That just doesn’t compute, nor is it about politics.

I’m just happy that the “freedom of” religion also offers me the “freedom from”.

Furthermore, throw the offenders in jail. Maybe they’ll enjoy a good gang rape as penance.

@Adogslife Maybe like pagan religions that have equal reverence for female divinity? Any religion that stems from the patriarchy of Yaweh certainly not.
