Another creep that hangs out with Epstein's best friend? Not surprising.
Isn’t she flying helicopters in New Hampshire?
Name an industry that if they had this many child sexual predators, wouldn't be immediately shut down and banned from operating ever again.
Seriously. Can you imagine if, say, NASA had the same ratio of child sexual predators as Christian churches do? Or Applebee's? Or Jiffy Lube? They'd all have to close up shop. Hell, there's a daycare in my town that was in business for 30 years, and a teacher got busted for diddling a kid. That place was done for THAT WEEK. Doors closed, never opened again. Probably tens of thousands of kids came through that place just fine, but all it took was ONE, and they were kaput.
These fucking churches need to be shut the fuck down. Those black metal guys in the 90s had the right idea.
Hollywood has a lot of pedos.
So does the music industry. Emo bands were notorious for it.
Now it seems like YouTubers are the new emo bands. There have been a lot of Minecraft, Roblox, etc YouTubers who have been caught.
Why is it always the church? That's rhetorical by the way. Fuck organized religion that makes everyone bend the knee.
Because “the church” only ever attract megalomaniacal fantasists who are prone to abuse their power.
Amen
80% of church goers believe that shit. The other 20% are there because of all the easy pickings.
Bad people are still bad in church, despite baseless apologist screeching about their fantasy of skydad making morals objective.
In the south we have an idiom "Birds of a feather flock together", which means people tend to associate with others of similar morals, ethics, beliefs. So, needless to say, I'm hardly surprised. Trump associate and pastor? There was almost no chance this filth was anything BUT a pedophile.
In the north we have a saying "don't leave your kids alone with a pastor". It isn't catchy, but it's good advice nonetheless
Here in the east we have a saying "Epstein didn't kill himself".
Nah! Its probably just one more coincidence, don't you think?
I've seen a bunch of movies where the cop asks people the same question and they point to a guy, the same guy. Those shows are fun. Because of the coincidences. Am I right?
As I always say, keep your children away from religion. They are the pedophiles, and they accuse everybody else of it. It's a cult!
And even if you think it's not a cult, your children will have plenty of time to meet God or whatever when they're old enough to make the decision on their own. Your god isn't so weak that he needs to indoctrinate impressionable children to gain followers, is he?
That's the thing that always bothered me about religion. There's no sales pitch, its just indoctrination. There's a million different varieties of religion, and supposedly only one of them is "correct"
Judaism seems to make the most sense to me of the monotheistic varieties because there is no demi gods like Christianity. But clearly religion isn't about religion, it's more about having an in group.
Yes, actually.
A religion is just a cult that has outlived its founder.
“Few, if any, were more high-profile than Morris, who steadily involved himself in state and national politics after founding Gateway in 2000”
The 90’s nerd in me did a huge double take when I read Gateway 2000
Me too!
Who would have thought?
Epstein?
Do a search for "pedophile pastor", "pedophile priest" or "pedophile preacher" and you will find page after page after page of sexual crimes against children.... To lighten the mood do an image search for golf cheat and count all the american presidents you see.
But remember:
Trans women in bathrooms are what you should be afraid/angry about!
How many of those are associated with Trump?
There are large numbers of pastors, priests, and teachers. Even if we expect pedophilia to be no more common in these professions than others, due to their proximity to children such crimes will be common. So I don't think the takeaway from this kind of google search should be that such professions are especially pedophilic.
Few, if any, were more high-profile than Morris, who steadily involved himself in state and national politics after founding Gateway in 2000. In 2017, Morris was tapped by Gov. Greg Abbott to help support the so-called “Bathroom Bill” that sought to ban transgender people from using their preferred bathroom — in part by arguing that it would allow children to be sexually abused.

Wow, the GOP actually hired an expert with hands on experience in child sexual abuse. Thats and unusual departure from their regular practice of inexperienced and unqualified people put in positions to decide legislation.
He is a pastor after all. Never trust your kids with one.
My mom's pastor was accused of being sexual towards a woman. The whole thing sounded a bit sketch, so I'm not entirely convinced he did anything. But given the reputation of religious leaders inalso wouldnt be surprised.
My mom defended him by saying he "showed his chaplains ID for the police department." As if him being thr chaplain that goes in and attempts to convert inmates makes him a good person. It sounded more like a flex, like he was saying "try pursuing this, I have friends in high places."
Worry not: Trump can pardon him if he's ever convicted!
Whew. Here I was worried that the rich and powerful would be held accountable for their crimes.
Clemishire’s disclosure came as the Dallas religious community was still reeling from a handful of recent sex abuse scandals. Since then, at least a dozen Dallas-area churches or pastors have been accused of committing or concealing sexual misconduct — allegations that have ensnared some of the area’s most prominent leaders and institutions.
Is Dallas a sanctuary city for paedophiles? 'Cause it sure looks like it from here.
No, the entire south is just where they all flee, since they can claim they are being "persecuted for my belief in GAWD" and the religious idiots just never question it. Despite the fact that they are a member of the most popular cult in the world, and the defacto religion of the US... Then when they start doing the same thing down south, the community will rally around their religious leader instead of kicking them out. Religion is a cancer.

Religious communities never "reel" from anything. At most they just forget (temporarily) about their kid-diddling pastor and move on to next absurdly-coiffed dude. And then the first one comes back crying and is forgiven.
trump tomorrow
How many times does this have to happen until people figure out it's not a coincidence?
For MAGA? I don't think there is a number.
Google megaplex
This is my surprise face: (・―・)
Tate doesn't need a pardon, though. Just needs to never go back to Romania.
Amazing how these so called Christian people have so many mental issues.
How many millions have died in religious crusades and other idiocy...
I attended this church growing up, it taught me some important lessons.
Like, religion is a sham and people are hopelessly indoctrinated.
And, as Carlin put it, “God needs mooooonnneeeeyyyhhh!”.
"All seeing, all knowing, all powerful, and just can't handle money!"
Shocker
Time for a presidential pardon?
Well they do always claim to love children
Always the ones you most suspect.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO--klahoma is where Robert Morris did sex crimes 🎶
Only the best charlatans work for co-president Tbag! Praise jebus, as well as all the tots and pears for another pastor caught diddling kids.
No way.
Reminder not a drag queen or immigrant…
Nor trans, nor democrat.
Sounds like he's exactly the kind of child predator Trump would like to pardon
This sounds like a Gilbert and Sullivan operetta.
Not even a pagan or anarchist
