    Educators get enough grief as is

    Not really. A large proportion of them are just on a power trip and enjoy having a power trip over the kids. And then they think they are as important as nurses or firefighters for treating your children like cattle. Teachers would downplay everything and lie to the parents and cry over the school’s precious fragile reputation.

    I’m more interested in why this comic alleges a youth pastor of something so gross as having CSAM on his device. That’s not a lighthearted or funny accusation.

    This I agree with in principal, though I would also add that the church (organised religion in general, really) has reputation for protecting it’s members for a reason.

    Plenty of times a Church has reported it’s leaders who were abusing their position and co-operated with law enforcement. My church’s policy is that you report it to the police first.

    I’m not saying there is an issue. My issue is that the comic is trying to make out that teachers don’t abuse. I don’t see how a pastor who has passed the same necessary background checks as a teacher (this is required in the UK) is any more of a risk than the secular teachers.
