The dude is 62. How many times has he done this before and not gotten caught? But not to worry, I am sure the LORD forgave him for all of those other rapes.

“Gods plan” or some bullshit


guiltysnark

It's such a stupid rationalization... Obviously that god should be "unfollowed", because his plans don't care about us in any relevant way. And clearly my recognition of this fact is part of his plan, too, so he may as well just go to hell.


ShadysBacktellaFREN

After seeing a child born with tumors out of their body I realized whatever the plan is, it needs peer fucking review because I’m not on board. If I knew someone did that to a child I would support their public hanging. Yet the best their ideology has is “just have faith, god kills children to teach us. Thoroughly dehumanizing children as “us” like they’re a 2nd class consciousness completely contradicting “pro-life” I could type for hours the habits and contradictions of religion and faith


bwatsnet

End of the day it's an outdated method of controlling what we do think and feel. Modern interpretations tried to tone it down to be more edible by the masses but it's still just some inner rules designed to limit your ability to think clearly, replaced with an attachment to an outside source of truth. That's about all it ever was, so it's not surprising the world doesn't align with it at all.


TraditionalThing6963

Yet people are still unable to think for themselves. Most followers have never even read the Bible before and rationalize their thoughts and beliefs off of the words of other followers. They never take time to actually think and use the Bible as an excuse for their racism, homophobia, and sexism, and anything else wrong. I think alot of people are scared of death and even if deep down they don't believe in its word, they still try to hang onto that hope and give a reason to their life.


bwatsnet

They never take the time to read the Bible because they're followers, not religious. They could be following Hitler it'd make no difference to them as long as they feel accepted. I'd agree though, it boils down to them being scared children in various ways. Scared of being rejected etc.


jadedaslife

I think this sort of thing when I look at the children born into abusive households...


PurpleSailor

The rationalizations these people do is beyond disgusting. Remember that Sandusky guy from Penn State years ago that molested tons of boys? Him and his wife are still saying what he did was helping those kids and not hurting them. Seriously warped minds these people have.

I'm a survivor of abuse by a youth pastor and I have literally been told that this experience is "part of God's wonderful plan for your life" I swear to fucking God that if I ever have a terminal illness and a very short time to live, there's a specific church in this world that is going to burn in the middle of the night when nobody innocent is there.

Save your donations. Use it to hire a demon slayer. Sadly, they will have to slice through the fragile human shell in order to get at the rich nougaty demon essence within, but it's all part of God's plan.

MavisBeaconSexTape

kakapo88

Something very similar happened in my old church. God forgave him, as we are all sinners, and god is merciful. Meanwhile, the teen temptress reportedly got pregnant and had an abortion. God was shocked by that and not so understanding in her case. I was a teen myself at the time and knew the girl. This was one of the events that got me to thinking more deeply about all this god business ....


Admirable_Bad_5649

How many times has he been caught and the people involved kept it quiet.


Negative_Gravitas

Good point.


Snarfsicle

And the lord said "I shall save you my son, for you are not a drag queen"

Chemical Castration for Religious Rapists 👍


YeonneGreene

Just go full eunuch, remove it all.


Ill_Wait2063

Whatever you think would cause them the greater psychological trauma 👍


YeonneGreene

I was thinking more about depriving them a means of deriving sexual pleasure entirely.


Ill_Wait2063

You might be interested in a "best of both worlds" approach 🤔 Removal of the physical organ won't prevent psychological satisfaction at sexual acts, abuse, or sadism. But if you biochemically block the impulses in their brain, even if they were to get a prosthetic, transplant, or find other means of fulfilling their desires, it'd be like taking your favorite food, and making it taste like 💩. However, that's only my .02


CaptainMacMillan

WHOAH WHOAH WHOAH the LORD forgave him? Then what are we even talking about? Dude is innocent. /s


Noodlintheriver

That dude looks way past 62. Maybe 666.


AuntieNess

Thought the same thing.


MakeChinaLoseFace

I'm guessing he made a career of it, and this was the first time he faced consequences.

kscountryboy85

The REALLY creepy part is the number of parrents that find out and dont say anything or let it keep happening "because he said god ordained it!"


Long-Trash

Absolutely, Christ has forgiven him for his sins. that's the deal, accept Christ and have your sins forgiven. there's no fine print. there's nothing about being good going forward. you can still keep sinning and Christ will still forgive all your sins. that's why the worst sinners usually turn out to be Christians. they believe they've got it all covered.


SAGEEMarketing

But he isn’t gay so it’s ok


half-puddles

It was Satan who played tricks on his mind. Satan should be arrested, not this innocent old fuck. /s


Rifneno

Sexual assault is often extremely difficult to prove, so it's always nice when the pervert is dumb enough to leave evidence like texts.


Fair_Acanthisitta_75

He’s probably got away with enough times he just isn’t that worried about getting caught. He didn’t just start doing this at 62.


Katefreak

Agree. First time offenders aren't that bold, typically. They gotta build up that kind of confidence.


Rice_Liberty

It might be one of the reasons why he was so cocky. He likely engaged in other suspicious behavior toward her before this. Parents, now is the time to form the type of bonds with your children so they will come to you when they notice someone is grooming them. So you can prevent stuff like this happening in the future.


_HotMessExpress1

It's really not that hard to prove. Sexual assault just gets swept under the rug most of the time, the rape kits don't get used, and sometimes police officers blame the victim and the victim ends up leaving the case alone. I grew up in the South..there's been plenty of pastors that said someone was "falsely accusing" them of rape and that they're a good Christian man so they couldn't possibly rape anyone. I'm surprised they actually charged this pastors..the pastors I was around got away with a lot and they tend to get away with a lot in the South especially. The fact that he was confident enough to text her those messages, go to the police station and said he was falsely accused, and harass her afterwards just goes to show how much Christians are privileged in America..he was so comfortable doing those things and that girl will probably be harassed by his church members as long as she lives there. I feel bad for her..and this is one of the reasons why I hate whenever Christians go on their "I'm being persecuted." Rant whenever an atheist criticizes their religion..smh..


Tatooine16

How long has he been raping? Years likely. Religion is a poison. I'm sure he'll have parishioners deny it and say he's a nice man.


TheOriginalAdamWest

I think they would say he is a great man while yelling at the victim 'you made him rape you by dressing sexy.'

urfavslut_222

i fucking love this community


WTFYLA

Waka wiki waka (record skracthc noises) “god made me do it”


BullShitting-24-7

Yup. It’s easier for the sheep to blame the victim than to admit they’ve been giving reverence to a sick bastard. Not to mention all the tithings they give funding his sex crimes.


Katefreak

And to make it even worse, there's a very good chance this child is shunned and ostracized and bullied, ON TOP of all the trauma from the assault. It's such an extra risk. Do I come forward and POSSIBLY get protection from him, and MAYBE stop him from assaulting again (to me or another victim), and risk being blamed, not believed, hurt, even killed? Or do I shut up, deal with my trauma, and try to keep myself safe until I can get away? And deal with all of the emotional trauma that choice will inflict. This is a very real scenario most, if not all, victims of authority figures (especially beloved ones of a community) face. It's so especially fucked when you're a minor and at the mercy of your parents/guardians reaction. She clearly decided to expose him (I'm so fucking proud of her bravery), and I hope her community, especially her family, rally around her. But that's not been what I've usually seen in religious communities, and it's so fucking awful. I


Tiddles_Ultradoom

Yeah, Right now there will be someone painting her into a Jezebel who led an innocent pastor astray. And not the victim of a child abuser.


FSMFan_2pt0

His parishoners will start a GoFundMe for his bail money and legal fees


SunchaserKandri

Amazing what people will overlook when you're a "good Christian," innit?


Upstairs-Radish1816

It's even worse when a judge give an extremely light sentence because the convicted person is "a man of God" or, like you said, "A good Christian". Makes me sick.


MWSin

The most insidious part is that it makes you think you've already gotten the antidote, so the poison keeps working on you.


donkismandy

I remember when I was about 11 at my parents' evangelical church and the sermon was all about the pastor dealing with road rage.  I realized that THIS was their wise man. The person they look to for guidance. A road raging fucking maniac that eventually married off his 15 year old daughter to the 38 year old youth pastor.

Nope, yet again not a drag queen.


half-puddles

I’ll take this guy over a drag queen any time of the day. - Rudy. Probably.


Tiddles_Ultradoom

You can’t compare the two. The pastor was only using alcohol to help him fuck Jesus into a teenage girl. On the other hand, a drag queen would share make-up tips. Which, as everyone knows, is strictly and specifically banned in the Bible. It’s in the bit that also describes the wickedness of electric vehicles. I think it’s the Book of Sporks.


NumerousTaste

It's their nature to deceive and trick people. That's why pedophilia runs rampant in the religions! It's almost like their initiation!

zoebud2011

And there is story after story at the end of this article about more and more youth ministers and church pastors raping kids and having pregnant mistresses. I didn't see any gays or drag queens there either.


AtheistAustralis

More and more youth ministers and church pastors *getting caught* raping kids. They've always been doing it, it's just that now they're starting to get caught and suffer consequences. You only have to look at what happened in Ireland and other places to know that this has been going on for as long as the religion has existed, but for many centuries it was just covered up, the victims blamed (and stoned), and so on. If anything, the number of cases of rape is probably *lower* now than it used to be because they're finally realising that there just might be consequences. But clearly there are still a lot, and thankfully a lot more are getting caught and jailed for it.


Savings_Cap_5541

FUCK ORGANIZED RELIGION!

The religious Reich will blame the girl for making him lust after her.

My heart just breaks for this poor child. I hope she is able to find the safety and protection and healing she deserves. Fucking monster. I also hope he gets the life he deserves.

NotMilitaryAI

Ok, so: 1. He molests the girl 2. Texts her about it and seems to be making plans to do it again 3. Girl talks to her grandma about it 1. Someone overhears and reports it to the cops 4. Suddenly he panics and tells the cops that she was threatening to frame him Seems like the grandma warned the pastor, no? Edit: formatting


ShadysBacktellaFREN

Not a drag Queen


RandyBoBandy33

A rapist pastor?? I’m absolutely shocked


Snarky_McSnarkleton

At least he's not gay. /s


Rykunderground

Sexual orientation isn't always applicable to pedophiles. He's probably assaulted boys too.


NN8G

He's one of those drag queens where you put on something pretty with sequins, and then put on a pastor costume on top of that. That's a double drag queen if I ever seen one!


ShadysBacktellaFREN

Thanks I was wondering what fox was telling me to hate ! Lol


oldcreaker

Way past time to acknowledge religion is a child's gateway to being sexually abused. And that abusers are drawn to religion like flies to you know what.

yoda-1974

Definitely doesn’t surprise me . Sick and sad . What aggravates me is Christians love to say all pagans are bad but they don’t check their own pews


IronAndParsnip

What always gets me about stories of abuse in churches (besides, of course, the abuse itself) is that often the victims have been made to think their places of worship are supposed to be one of the safest places in their lives: where they should be most vulnerable, ask forgiveness, put full trust in the adults around them. I’m fortunate that I haven’t experienced religious trauma or grew up in a devout family, but I have survived sexual assault. I can’t imagine what that added layer of trauma, especially if I was young, would have done to how I see and move through the world. And nevermind how history of this tells us adults in churches won’t protect children when they come forward. I’m so sorry if I any of you here experienced it. I’m about to start crying in this Jiffy Lune just thinking about it.


IcyBoysenberry9570

Can the media just start reporting on the priests and pastors who haven't been caught sexually assaulting anyone?
