for the church harbor that which seeks forgiveness and absolution from god, but not from it's own fellow man whom it harmed, and why organized religion hath been the breeding ground for the vilest and least caring since the dawn of humankind. And again it will be those ones that have to face that at judgement. The Christian faith in no way promotes such actions as being discussed here. It is those people's failures. |

"Jim Townsley (senior pastor of Central Baptist Church in Southington, CT): When a girl told Townsley about having been sexually abused by another minister in the church, Townsley confronted the minister, who “admitted to inappropriate behavior,” “denied having done anything more than kissing and fondling,” and suggested that the fault was with the girl. Townsley didn’t report it to police, and allowed the man to resign and move to Tennessee. A couple years later, after an anonymous phone call, Townsley was caught and convicted of sexual assault. Townsley then described the church’s secretive manner of dealing with it as “biblical.”

The judgement you speak of on this earth from judges/juries is nothing compared and is not the same as our fathers eternal judgement. |

"What message do Baptist leaders send to clergy abuse victims by this conduct?
Answer: "What happened to you doesn't matter. Go away. Shut up." What message do Baptist leaders send to clergy perpetrators by this conduct? Answer: "You're safe with us. We'll cover for you." Stephen Wilson (SBC Executive Committee member and vice-president of academic affairs at Mid-Continent University): Chaired the Southern Baptist Convention’s do-nothing subcommittee that 8600 delegates directed to study Baptist clergy sex abuse but that, in actuality, never even had a budget for any study. |
