Christianity does not consider a courtship between a 32-year-old man and a 16-year-old girl to be a sin, as long as civil laws are not violated. Rather than a sin, it is seen as a good thing—two mature adults discerning whether they have a vocation to marry each other and try to bring new souls into the world, who are predestined to love God for all eternity in Heaven.

There’s nothing virtuous in the behavior alleged by the three allegations of misconduct (the 14yo, the yearbook/car incident, the groping), nor in the implied allegation of lying. With that said, there are contradictions in the story of the 14yo, the yearbook looks on balance to have been forged, the character of the witnesses is in question, the witnesses are not available for further questioning, there is no common modus operandi in the alleged crimes, and other than the yearbook there is no corroborating evidence of any sort, physical or testimonial. With control of trillions of dollars at stake in the election, it is difficult to take these sorts of claims at face value.

Now there is no law that says that you have to vote for a man if you disapprove of his dating choices. For example, Christianity says that interracial dating is a good thing, but many voters have in the past disapproved of that sort of thing.

To be honest with you...unless that yearbook message was something along the lines of, “Sorry about that unfortunate incident behind the restaurant—better put some ice on it,” I don’t see how it is incriminating in the least.

How many famous people sign autographs and remember the person who asked them? Are we to infer that every autograph is possible proof of sexual assault?
