A total of 107 out of the 120 respondents said they had been abused by their families.

An alternate and more revolting article title:

Nearly 90% of religious group followers' kids report domestic abuse.

11 ( +11 / -0 )

In the survey, conducted in May and June with responses from 120 family members of avid followers of the Unification Church, Jehovah's Witnesses and other religious groups, 89 percent said they had been abused by their families and other relatives.

Don't forget that the one and only reason any action is being taken about these groups is because of Abe's shooting.

It's only window dressing to cover the LDP's culpability, they don't care. Tax all religious organizations, we need the tax revenue anyways.

Pain created by the Universal Life Church may last generations.

Title is slightly misleading. Not feeling it's sufficient isn't quite the same as not backing it. It makes it sound like they are against any remedies proposed.

120 people is not large enough for a valid survey.

Business as usual then! So much for stamping out cults like the unification church...
