Hawk...any ideas on *why* they seem "content" to ignore the corruption and oppression??

Why do most Americans ignore the corruption within their own churches, until it hits the daily news?

Is it an unwillingness to admit that these allegedly "holy" men (and women) are imperfect...

Muslim youth turn to religious fundamentalism out of a over-reaction to the corruption and sexuality of the secular world, just as many Christians do.. But most of them are no different than their secular counterparts they claim to disdain... What they do in private is often just as corrupt and impure as what the powerful do in public.

It's human nature..
