Oh wow now that you've dragged up a tiny minority I suppose all of Germany is comparable to theocracies like the Taliban!!! Watch out everyone, the furthest corners of the forest are taking over!!!

Edit: A few more sources regarding secularism...

u have not lived there and u have not been locked up in a catholic monastary boarding school. u don't know what these s are capable of. I DO! I have been through living hell being locked up for 8 years where i had no choice but to succumb to their own little anal internal anarchy! i know what brainwashing and turning you inside out they are capable of!
i am not talking about germany as a whole...but pockets of germany where these worlds do still exist, removed from the every day world!
don't talk to me about the Grundgesetz. i know full well what it is! |

Ok, so by your logic, because of the minority I should not consider the rest of it to be secular? :rolleyes: Using your logic, I shouldn't consider Canada as much more than a big community of Mennonites. They may exist but they hardly form the majority or even government policy. Germany is a secular nation. If you got screwed over by a private school, you have my sympathy, but there's a difference between a government and a small group of civilians. And I was in catholic schools for most of grade school and all of high school so i durn well know about their techniques. |

i'm not talking about germany being a secular or non-secular state. that's not even the point. i'm talking about certain parts of germany where these practices are still happening - hence it is possible that this couple was so secluded or that they grew up in an environment where sex is taboo! ... and it was my assumption that it is due to religious practices in their area! |

Well obviously these extremely small, admittedly secluded areas aren't getting much in the way of coverage; meanwhile the Bible Belt in the USA is a much larger and far more famous section. Every day we hear about crap from these nut-jobs complaining about music/cards/movies corrupting the world, and they form a much larger number of people too. It gets to the point where some states actually refuse to teach evolution in school. Entire states. Not villages, but States!
Anyway the point is that I'm justified in saying that I'd expect to see something like that from the Bible Belt as opposed to Germany (which is by majority very secular) where obviously none of us have even heard of these tiny little villages; it's a matter of exposure. |

Why the hostility towards Rob here? His comment wasn't even challenging your post, but rather making light of the article at hand.... (big hug Silke)
