Although there is no evidence of actual offences occurring in the context you present it is certainly reasonable to suggest with a reasonable level of certainty that there have been unreported abuse based on the rate of disclosed offenses over a similar period previously. Unless, of course, we should think that it is reasonable to assume that all abuse is being reported.

This is What I Would Need in Order to Believe
by cofty insometimes theists challenge atheists about what evidence would be required before they would believe.
various unlikely scenarios are offered in reply.
i have taken the bait myself in the past.. i think the correct answer is much more ordinary.

I wonder if you are aware of the magnitude of the forces that would be required to 'wobble' the Earth as you seem to be suggesting. Suffice it to say, if what you seem to be suggesting were true then we would be dead, along with everything else.

THIS Is How Muslim Mother “Fixes” Rape Of 2-Year-Old Granddaughter By Grandfather
by Hecce insaw this dated 2/26/2017, seems to be from 12/2015.. .
even in a religious culture that advocates the murder of victims as honorable, fathers and brothers are typically the perpetrators of horrific violence against female family members whose only crime was to be the victim of another, the killing of a child by its mother stands out as particularly unnatural and depraved.such a heinous act occurred recently in sohag, egypt when a mother of a two-year-old child took the life of her child rather than protect it from violent sexual assault by its own grandfather.. a muslim mother identified only as “merfat” was awakened by screams in the middle of the night and found her father, faraj, in the act of raping her daughter.. .
rather than acting out of a natural, protective instinct, the 23-year-old mother chose to shield her father from scandal as taught by muslim theology and sharia law.. merfat told authorities that she took her daughter, little grace ahmed, from the grandfather, placed her in a tub and held her head under water until the child drown.. alik akhmim, chief detective of the police in sohag told egyptian reporters that “traces of blood” had been found in the little girl’s anus, evidencing the degree of force and injury the child endured at the hands of her mother’s father.. this kind of act is referred to as an “honor killing” thought to place the reputation of the family above that of any individual member, and which is used to punish the victim rather than hold the perpetrator accountable.. murdering rape victims is common in countries and communities that adhere to sharia law where the crime is rarely reported for fear of exposing the family to shame.. “honor killing” is no longer limited to predominantly muslim countries or the middle east.

Did you bother reading any of those links in the post just above yours?
Or is it easier to say "Keep coming with those credible sources" than formulate an articulate argument?

Mohammed married a 6 year old girl.. He consummated the marriage when she was 9. Mohammed is seen as the perfect example of how a man (A Muslim man) should behave.
There are no branches of Islam that teach the above is wrong.
Deal with the above facts, stop equivocating...

What do you mean by "too far gone"? That makes no sense to me.
Why are you talking about Trump as if that is the topic of this thread? That makes no sense.
What has Greek Mythology got to do with Islam? The former is obviously myth, the latter has many millions of followers that actually believe all that nonsense and will go as far as to commit atrocities because they believe they are copying the example set by the perfect human, Mohammed. Was there a point to you bringing that up? If it was a simple exercise in equivocation then I do not see why you would need to do that. If someone murders someone do you spend hours considering all other murderers to see if they are really so bad after all or do you deal with that murderer based on that persons actions.
What colours was Spoletta using again? Seemed to me that this poster was stating that those who question Islam are Islamophobic and then crying about being attacked for being called on such a daft statement. Now that is a black/white way of looking at things.
If you really do disagree with something why don't you try actually giving a constructive rebuttal that we can all understand, digest and consider.

First you attempt a moral equivalence argument about violence being commited in all communities, yet you fail to address the flaw of that logic which is the cultural reasons (underpinned by Islam) and general acceptance of such practices within the Islamic communities.
You finish off that argument by saying:
"I have only one word to describe what I'm seeing in a lot of these threads. Islamophobia, pure and simple."
But you don't point out what exactly is "Islamophobic". Are you suggesting talking about what is happening is wrong? Don't you like the fact that a portion of our community has serious cultural/religious problems?
Then your parting short is:
"Have a good time attacking anyone who comes to these threads that doesn't agree that Islam and Muslims are beyond redemption."
I would suggest your silly ideas were attacked, not you personally. Also you present an incorrect portrayal of what has been discussed on this thread...

Were you trying to show how Islam isn't the only religion to have problems with its adherents? I think we all would agree that all religions (and non-religious organisations) can harbour those that take advantage of its teachings. However this equivalence you are pushing falls short in explaining just why it is far and away more widespread within the Islamic community than anywhere else. We even see evidence that it is not just confined to the poor and under-educated.
Your list goes back over many years. Would you like to discuss the events over the last month to get some perspective here?

"Please explain to me how I'm wrong in this assumption. No deflection please." - Spoletta
Using your own rules, explain how Islam can be interpreted in a manner that would make it compatible with modern morals and acceptable to those not of that religion.

From my perspective that picture you posted of the strata being dated in such a way demonstrates you haven't got the first idea about how geologists date the rocks they research. Put simply, there are 2 types of dating used: relative and absolute. The first, as the name suggests, dates the rocks relative to the surrounding rocks they are found in (older or younger). The second uses various radiometric methods to establish the actual age of the rock in question. You can use one or the other or both.
Neither method I explained above is in any way reliant on the other method, as your picture erroneously suggests. However creationist websites and books continuously publish that drivel and people, such as you, continue to lap it all up.
If you wished you could learn about these methods and how they work. You could come to understand the restrictions each of the available methods have and why these restrictions exist. You could learn how geologists and related scientists apply these methods and the processes they follow to avoid mistakes.
Or you can continue to read these creationist websites in much the same manner that JW's are encouraged to read their literature in the firm knowledge that you are right and the entire scientific community is missing something obvious/is too stupid to realise they are being misled/is happy to be part of a big conspiracy to mislead the entire world (delete as you see fit).

Cofty is laughing at you (as am I) because your utter lack of knowledge in this subject is such that you cannot see the ridiculousness of the statements you are making (my higher education credentials are in geology and related Earth sciences). Even your accusations of logical fallacies get a chuckle out of me because you seem not to notice that what you are accusing Cofty of perpetrating, you are actually committing yourself!
