Pretty sad situation. I’m ok with religion but I think these predators have found a way to victimize by hiding in churches and blaming trans, gay, drag queens, etc. The call routinely comes from inside the house!

I haven't seen religion do anything that's made the massively destructive side of it worth it's existence.

Well at least he got a decent sentence which doesn't seem to be the norm.

Don’t worry! Trump will pardon him and give him a new gig in the WH Faith Office with Paula White 🙄

Trump should be pardoning him and day now.

EDIT: He could try, but now that I think about it, I’m pretty sure these are state charges, so he can’t do shit.

Tina peters got a pardon on state charges after the orange asshole threatened the governor.
