Tammy Faye Baker was a scandal to Christians everywhere.

We agree, but not as much a scandal as priests raping little boys

The "scandal " of the Bakers was not her make up. It was greed and sexual sin. It was taking money from little old ladies and building an air conditioned dog house with the funds. Poor Tammy was an insecure woman that thought she actually looked better with tons of makeup.

We are surely blessed that God looks on the heart and not the Max Factor

I suppose that one can always make the argument that there is something worse somewhere else. This is the game of hypocrites. I suppose the priest you reference tell themselves that they're not Hitler after all.

The makeup was symbolic of the shallowness and hypocrisy. If ever there was a "painted sepulchre," it was Tammy Faye.

In the parable of the guests at the wedding feast, the ones who were not dressed appropriately were thrown out into the darkness where they would wail and gnash their teeth.
