[Texas megachurch minister caught in Internet sex sting]
lisa says: (Oh how the Jesus-haters and Christian-haters will play with this one.)
icebear's response:
it dosen't help that we are just as disgusted and disturbed as they are....
actually, i may take that back. usually "they" are not as disgusted as they should be, they are just delighted that someone claiming to be Christian gets caught doing something we proclaim detestable. they don't think its wrong, they just like the evidence of hypocrisy and then pretend to be scandalized...

Hmm. No, actually I'm more disgusted at them than happy it was a christian proving their hypocrisy.
And plus you all just love it when an atheist does something wrong so you can go on about how immoral they are for not believing in God, so fuck you.
...they don't think its wrong...
Incorrect. We do think soliciting an apparent 13 year old for sex and driving 200 miles to get it is wrong. However, it's obvious that this MINISTER doesn't think driving 200 miles to screw a 13 year old is wrong.
"...they just like the evidence of hypocrisy..."
Probably the only part I agree with you.
Otherwise, a paedophile is a paedophile is a paedophile. It's only a bonus that the paedophile happens to the very person that's supposed to be bastian of morality.
Icebear has it wrong. We are just as disgusted by the fact that an adult drove 200 miles in his wife's car to commit pedophilia.
Then there's those who call themselves "true christians" that are making judgements not only to someone who was about to commit pedophilia, but think of themselves above those who are not. In my opinion, that's true arrogance.
We have a field day whenever an alleged paragon of virtue screws a little girl.
You have a field day whenever a normal person gets a terminal disease.
I think we still have the moral high ground, here.

No, Mr. Bear, this shit happens way too often for me to be scandalized over it any more. It's like the suicide bombings in the Middle East and Iraq - I know I should be outraged and disgusted, but it happens so often that I just don't care anymore.
How do you know so well what "they" think? You just automatically assume that people who don't believe in your god are evil. But, your assumptions are not any basis for reality.
I think it is disgusting that a man who puts himself in a position of power does everything the opposite of what he preaches for others daily. I am not scandalized by the actions; I am repulsed.
No, Most people think it's wrong.
Christians often defend their leaders when shit like this goes down. Make all sorts of ridiculous excuses. They also like to think the glory of Jesus keeps them pure and rightious. Now that's hypocrisy
We are probably MORE disgusted than you are by this, because we understand that christianity is not equal to morality and you not only want to insist that it is, you want to actually FORGIVE this guy. Within a year he'll not only be back, he'll probably be the youth pastor.
And let's not pretend that if he was an atheist you wouldn't be all over this, claiming that if he had been christian it would never have happened. You'd be rubbing your little hands together in rapturous glee. So FUCK YOU, you sancitmonious little twat.
No we're disgusted by it, however we do not understand how you people circle the wagons around your own and make excuses for him because he was one of your leaders.
It's not even the hypocrisy of this asshole standing up there every Sunday telling me I'm going to hell that gets me. It's the Christian response to their ministers getting caught. Either Satan made them do it, or it's an evil atheist plot to bring the good Christians down.
Confused?
