   Correct!  Trump is a sexual predator who is trying to convert our children   
   to homosexuality using government funds.   
      
   ll rightists are inferior and therefor DEI hires.  White Christian male   
   rightists prefer sex with boys.   
      
   Some estimates exist on the total instances of sexual abuse within   
   Protestant   
   Christian churches. One estimate comes from three of the largest faith-   
   based   
   insurance companies that insure nearly 160,000 churches. These three faith-   
   based insurance companies reported 7,095 insurance claims of sexual abuse   
   by   
   clerical members, church employees, congregation members, or others   
   involved   
   within these settings from 1987 to 2007 (The Associated Press, 2007). These   
   reports indicate an average of 260 claims of sexual abuse per year. In   
   addition, Denney, Kerley, and Gross (2018) published one of the first   
   empirical studies on sexual abuse in the U.S. within Protestant Christian   
   settings that examined news articles reporting on arrests involving sexual   
   abuse, finding 326 total cases reported from 1999 to 2014. Most recently,   
   the   
   Houston Chronicle published a series titled "Abuse of Faith," uncovering   
   sexual abuse and cover-up within the largest Protestant Christian   
   organization in the U.S. (i.e., the SBC). They identified 380 sexual   
   abusers   
   and 700 alleged victims over 20 years (Downen, Olsen, & Tedesco, 2019).   
   Moreover, Downen et al. (2019) found that 35 Southern Baptist ministers   
   were   
   hired at churches, despite being accused of sexual misconduct or abuse,   
   demonstrating a pattern of institutional issues in responding to alleged   
   sexual abuse.   
      
   It is clear that sexual abuse occurs within these organizations, thus   
   underscoring the importance of examining sexual victimization and related   
   contextual characteristics, such as offender types, that arise within this   
   setting. The need to further understand sexual abuse within this setting is   
   imperative since the impacts of sexual victimization are so severe. Effects   
   of sexual victimization include, but are not limited to, depression,   
   suicide/suicidal thoughts, substance use/abuse, posttraumatic stress   
   disorder   
   (PTSD), eating disorder(s), and more (Bensley, Van Eenwyk, & Simmons, 2000;   
   Beitchman et al., 1992; Briere & Runtz, 1988; Dube et al., 2005; Gold,   
   1986;   
   Kendall-Tackett, Williams, & Finkelhor, 1993; MacMillan & Munn, 2001;   
   Najdowski & Ullman, 2009; Rossow & Lauritzen, 2001; Simpson & Miller,   
   2002).
