NEWARK, Ohio -- An Ohio pastor and his wife have been charged with possessing almost a dozen tapes of graphic child pornography.
David Waser Sr., 52, and his 54-year-old wife, Judy, have lived in Newark for five years, while he serves as the minister at the Second Church of Christ next door. They have now been arrested and accused of receiving and possessing child pornography.
Police said that in June, David Waser Sr. paid $130 for 11 hard-core child pornography videos on the Internet. Some involved children as young as 4 years old.

Maybe they were just doing 'research', like the guy from The Who, etc? Yes, the "research defense"; that's it!
Yeah, the "He's never done this before". Bull. Over and over he's done it before and then get up in the pulpit and preach.
Definite misinterpretation of "Jesus Loves the Little Children" ..... hmmmm... think he was humming it while .... never mind
What I think is . . . . . that Jesus gave the STRONGEST warning ever to those who would pervert the ways of children. Unless this couple has a serious and complete internal conversion they will regret their lifestyle for many moon to come.
Legal child porn?
no... well depends .... but doubt there was any intent to titilate...
It will be the most loved movie by child molesters ever.
It may very well be determined not to be legal. Investigation already underway in some UK prosecutor's office, I heard.
Seems to be you every day non-denominational Evangelical -

The churches of Christ
"We are undenominational and have no central headquarters or president. The head of the church is none other than Jesus Christ himself (Ephesians 1:22-23).
Each congregation of the churches of Christ is autonomous, and it is the Word of God that unites us into One Faith (Ephesians 4:3-6). We follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and his holy Apostles, and not the teachings of man. We are Christians only!"
Every faith and denomination has more than thier fair share of bad seeds .....
Execpt of course for us SubGeni... /sarc
CoC is a denomination that has gone downhill, and badly, for the last 20 or so years. The national organization is a card-carrying member of the World Council of Churches, an ultra-leftist/marxist/socialist organization that claims to represent church-going Christians worldwide. In reality, the only thing WCC (We Caress Communists) represents is liberal causes such as unrestricted abortion rights, ordaining of homosexual clergy, vehemently anti-Israel, pro-communist revolutionary movements in the third world, extremist environmentalists, and so on.
My wife's family left CoC about 15 years ago when their denomination started having dialogue on homosexual clergy. They didn't hang around for the act to take place. Amen!
Ooops my mistake. I misread it. I was speaking of United Church of Christ, not CoC.
My apologies.
Aren't you talking about the United Church of Christ? Not sure this Church of Christ is part of that denomination. It doesn't really look as if it is.
I don't know why but these guys always look kinda creepy to me. I used to work in a church several years after one of the deacons was convicted of molesting some of the kids he taught in Sunday School; even worse, he was a foster father to umteen kids and molested them too. I went back in the church's albums and when I saw the guy, he looked just like a weirdo (like this guy). I know not all weirdos look weird but a lot of them do. Can't explain it but I can feel it.
My reply crossed your update. Sorry.
It's all relative.
No proglem. Definitely a "DOH!" moment. Usually happens 2-3 times a day.
