This is a bit involved to provide a summary. Transcript not available in the description of the YouTube video, but does contain extensive citations and sources for the various claims within the video.
This video discusses the various ways that cults (David Berg's "Teens for Christ"/"Family International") and religions (Jehova's Witnesses, Catholics, etc.) isolate members and discourage members from going to authorities about various forms of sex abuse, including child abuse.
When asked to choose between protecting children from sex abuse and protecting the image of a religious organization they belong to, sadly most people will choose the latter. The video discusses the specific tactics used to achieve this.
I see this as reinforcement of a point I've made many times when it comes to child sex abuse and religious institutions: it's the attempts to hide incidents of this sort that causes the most damage to children.
