From what I understand the child was ten years old. Do you also withhold judgment of Charles Manson, Ted Bundy, Dahmer and Gacy. Or is it just pedophiles? Or just folks who's religious beliefs are similar to yours?

It appears he used his position of trust to take advantage of an innocent. That's unacceptable. I don't care what he did that was 'good'. Tell me something - If a man donates a million dollars to a worthwhile charity, does that give him the right to 'get away' with killing his wife? Is there some kind of 'trade off' that you know about that I don't know about?

People are flawed - we're all sinners.

But while we're here we also have to render unto Caesar... I doubt this man would have gotten the death penalty for molesting a ten year old, but he would have lost many of his worldly powers, wealth and position. Maybe losing everything was part of his spiritual path. A path he was too much of a coward to take. True repentance starts when the laws of remorse are restored in our souls... He needed to come to terms with the harm he had done, ask forgiveness and pay the price for his sin. He didn't do that. He took the cowards way out.

I had just received this news last night and pulled the trigger on a post I should have deleted.

My rejection of what you said is based on your presumption of guilt of this man, whom you obviously do not know.

There is so much more to this story; my radar has gone off. Some observers are theorizing he may not have died. Voice of the Martyrs reaches into governments around the world to do their work. This has to do with much more than what’s been reported. And I do not believe TW was a sexual predator.
