Blue Moose, ALL: While ALL child victims of abuse -- in this case a medical center employee who "took indecent liberties" with a minor -- are relevant to this thread...
...and we can all lift this victim up in prayer [the article doesn't mention age or sex of the victim]...
...if your point was to pinpoint a "Baptist" abuser here...
...you utterly failed to make that connection at least with this post.
In case you aren't aware, the OVERWHELMING majority of employees at ANY given hospital or medical center that has some denominational name attached to it...
...be it Baptist...
...Catholic...
...Lutheran...
...Presbyterian...
...Methodist...
...Adventist...
...or something else...
...are not believers "churched" within that denomination!
I would have hoped you would have known this by this latter time in your life.
In fact, it's actually worse with a lot of these denominationally named hospitals. Many of them actually do abortions there!
They started off as wonderful representations of Christ's healing care; and then drifted off to be the shell they are today.
You know, BM, it's not that Christians disagree with Mormons that widespread apostasy exists and has existed. It's just that Mormons are DEAD WRONG in saying ALL Christian denominations are guilty of being 100% AWOL.
And so it is with these hospitals.
And don't just stop there...universities such as Duke, Baylor, Southern Methodist University, Texas Christian University, and the like are not what they used to be re: representing their Christian origins. Same is true of Catholic universities like Boston College, Notre Dame, Villanova, Marquette, and many others.
