A pastor grooming a young girl in his church is far more then just fornication.
Where are you?
Well, it’s also abuse of an ecclesiastical post, obviously. And that should be hooted down by all good Christians by all good means, but that part doesn’t spill over into any sort of plausible secular law. Not unless we want to invite Caesar into matters of church discipline, and Satan is clever how he uses Caesar.
But this young girl wouldn’t have even been considered underage by anything close to biblical standards. That’s the point I wished to raise.
