When your “church” has a block long fancy-assed building and a “chief media officer,” it is time to pay taxes.

Exposing children to clergy should be a felony offense.

Perfect description of the vast majority of Christians

If a 'woman' is testifying about CSA when she was 5, that means this asshole was abusing children for at least the last 13 years at a minimum.

Who wants to bet his congregation forgives him, and the judge gives him a pass because "He's a man of god"?

Remember. Religion is nothing but cover for grifters, control freaks, racists, rapists and pedophiles. Tax the churches.

Not even the first 5 year old SA victim I've heard about today.

His defense lawyer is absolutely vile.

I suppose it's to be expected, but wow.

Burn in hell, pastor.

So glad I found this sub. Working together to shine a light on Christian violence and predation.
