Rape, Molestation and Incest are Mostly Due to Intoxicants - Dr Zakir Naik
Dr. Zakir Naik presents statistics claiming that in 2014, a rape occurred every 37 seconds in the US according to the Department of Justice, and argues that intoxication is the primary factor in most cases of rape, molestation, and incest.
Summary
Dr. Zakir Naik begins by citing statistics from the US Department of Justice's National Crime Survey Bureau, claiming that in 2014 there were an average of 2,318 rape cases daily in the United States, equating to one rape every 37 seconds. He asserts that investigations reveal the majority of perpetrators in these cases were intoxicated at the time of the crime. The speaker extends this argument to cases of molestation, stating that most perpetrators in these instances are also intoxicated. Dr. Naik then discusses incest statistics, claiming that 8% of the American population engages in incestuous relationships, which he defines as sexual relationships between family members such as mother and son, father and daughter, or brother and sister. He characterizes this as meaning every 12th American commits incest. According to his presentation, research indicates that in most incest cases, either one or both parties involved are intoxicated. The speaker concludes by linking alcohol consumption to increased risks of various crimes and diseases, specifically mentioning that scientific evidence suggests alcoholics have higher chances of contracting AIDS.
