Southern Baptists

A survey by the Journal of Pastoral Care in 1993 found that 14 percent of Southern Baptist ministers said they had engaged in “inappropriate sexual behavior.”

By 2000, a report to the Baptist General Convention found the incidence of sexual abuse by clergy had reached “horrific proportions.” Victims advocates have derided church leadership for protecting predators and covering up crimes.

In 2016 the Southern Baptist Convention elected Steve Gaines as its president. A few years earlier, Gaines, at the time head of a Memphis, Tennessee, church was implicated in clergy child molestation case. Investigators said Gaines knew for years that one of his ministers had sexually molested a child. Gaines neither reported the crime to police or his congregation, police said.

Yes, you repeated back to me exactly what I told you.

Good job; you want a gold star?

How many of the sources *protected* and *enabled* the guilty? All you have, at best, is one single denomination and no proof of enabling.

Pedos try to infiltrate everywhere; it’s only Catholicism that moves them around to bugger even more children.
