Sex Scandals in Religion (video)

(TimothySpeaks, June 8, 2011)

In this exclusive Web chat, Robin Benger and Peter Kavanagh deliver a very enlightening perspective on the making of "Sex Scandals In Religion." This discussion delves more deeply into the subject matter, beyond what was possible to cover in the broadcast documentaries themselves.

The producers reveal the similarities between the four religions covered in the episodes -- as well as the similar responses to allegations of sex abuse that have occurred in religious organizations.

From Robin and Peter's experience, it becomes very clear just how difficult and dangerous it can be to cover such subjects. Intelligent and thoughtful questions came from the online audience, which highlighted the growing interest in these issues.
